Out of San Francisco, FlexxBronco has been assaulting the West Coast rock and punk scene relentlessly over the past several years, merging their collective love of rock icons, punk music and drunken country-stomp sing-a-longs into one big, dirty and sexy rock and roll indulgence.
What's resulted is an over-the-top stage show with a fusion of sound drawing comparisons to the outlaw hell-billy style of Hank III, the classic rock-punk sounds of Social Distortion and the driving rock anthems of AC/DC. The four members of Flexx Bronco are Guy Thunderbird (vocals and bass), Filthy and Vinnie Regret (guitars), and Thor Bigsby (drums).
They have been blazing a viscous DIY trail of 300+ shows over the past several years with acts such as The Bronx, Supersuckers, Throw Rag, Demented Are Go, Agent Orange, The Black Halos, Tesla, Sammy Hagar and Jetboy as well as the Van’s Warped Tour in 2006, SXSW in 2007 and multiple festival appearances. They have played in venues ranging from small bars to amphitheaters.
Winner of SF Weekly's 2009 "Best Rock Band in the Bay", and 2008 SF Bay Guardian's reader's choice award for "Best Punk Band in the San Francisco Bay Area" as well as 107.7 The Bone's 2006 Battle of the Bands, Flexx Bronco has accumulated tens of thousands of votes from rock fans throughout northern California.
Their first EP, a self-released CD titled Volume I in 2006, produced by Roger Somers (Rage Against the Machine, Rod Stewart) features tracks which have been featured on television commercials on the Fuse Network, Spike, ESPN and a variety of other cable stations. Classic Rock magazine (May 2008) raves: "Flexx Bronco's cowboy sleaze is a superior slab of macho twin-guitar swagger and gunslinger blooze."
This band is not looking for any handouts and continues to execute with an insane work ethic and passion infused with some dark humor to deliver a modern version of Rock 'n Roll that every true rock fan gets off on. They are constantly developing their stage show and looking for more dynamic ways to keep people entertained. Flexx Bronco is finishing up new tracks for Volume II, with singles out in February 2009 and West Coast (US) and European tours to follow. |
