   About The Janks
THE JANKS is an up-and-coming band from Southern California that plays original songs inspired by a wide variety of musical styles including folk, jazz, classical, blues, etc. The band is currently working on material for their 2nd full length independent record release & is playing numerous live shows in California. THE JANKS got their band name from the undeniable "janky" quality of some of thier childhood friends. Upon visiting an urban dictionary one can see that the word 'JANK' has a handful of entries, even including contrasting definitions. THE JANKS is composed of 4 friends. It's founding members Zack Zmed(vocals, guitar, keys, lyrics) Garth Herberg (guitar, keys, lyrics, orchestral arrangements) and Jesse Brown (bass, percussion) began playing together in early 2005. They then independently recorded the album 'Delicate Mouthfeels' in Porterville, CA shortly before moving back to LA County and adding Landon Young (drums) to complete the mix. "Wherever there is suffering... we were just there. Wherever there is injustice... you just missed us, and wherever there is liberty... we are on our way because we want your money."THE JANKS"
