  • Bio

    Whiz Bang Three was a band much loved by it's members. Past tense. If you want to get in touch, you can try emailing the gmail address. We do not check myspace messages. If you want to see what Curren and Maureen are up to, please visit www.echoarmada.com. .. .... THE DIRT ON WE THREE. ER, FIVE. OK, WHATEVER. .. Saline and sultry, Whiz Bang Three's two female singers and bluesy rhythm section float folk-pop jetsam over a heady undercurrent of rock and roll. These fluid, soulful sounds echo an unlikely emulsion of Amy Winehouse, The Indigo Girls and The Red Hot Chili Peppers, while always charting a course for their own territories. Characterized by smart lyrics, driving rhythms and haunting harmonies, this diverse and animated DC band throws down with style. .. .... ¤ BOOKING/CONTACT: ..whizbangthree@gmail.com.. .. ¤ EPK: ..www.sonicbids.com/whizbangthree.. .. ¤ JOIN OUR MAILING LIST!: ..www.groups.google.com/group/whizbangthree.. .. ¤ DISCOGRAPHY: Mission: Cacophony (Live, 2009), Best Original Jumbo Slice (2008), Modern Times Compilation CD: 100% Local Music! (2008) .. .. .. .. .... .. "New local group… working up a kind of dirty blues-rock sound. Strong female vocals." – On Tap Magazine, Joel's Picks .. "That song was playing and it hypnotized me. I was hypnotized." - Insomnia Radio Baltimore co-host Tim's on-air comment on 'Life List' .. "Headlined by the personality of Maureen Nelson, and her wide eyed intensity, Whiz Bang Three delivers a mixture of blues and jazz, rock and soul, with a freshness that is, without a doubt, entirely their own." – Tom Goss, Acoustic District .. "Local indie folk rockers… But don't be fooled. There are actually five of them." - Dcist.com .. "More bassy than Tom Petty, less bassy than Dave Matthews." - Matt 'Ears for Years' Holsen, Producer/Arranger .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Late one June night at the Palace of Wonders, Whiz Bang Three hopped on the stage for a lo-fi rendition of their song 'Give Take Stop Fake' during Live Humans in DC. Guitarist Troy was out for the night, but good friend of the band Adrian of the Diffrents was there to fill in.

    Hi Whiz Bang Three. EletriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs make its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check EletriKa out! Thanks a lot for the attention and support. Keep in touch.
