About The Flanks
Pioneers of New York’s underground country music scene, the Flanks formed in 2002, arriving in the city from Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Illinois, New Hampshire, California, and exit 9 of the New Jersey Turnpike. Embracing a rugged country-folk style described by one listener as “all spit and no polish,” and by others as “garage country,” the Flanks write and perform songs unlike anything the city’s heard-it-all music lovers are likely to experience during a night out: a sound deliberately gritty and rough around the edges, drawing on influences as earthy as eighty-year-old jug band music and as unapologetic as ’70s outlaw country.
The Flanks have performed live in-studio on New York Public Radio's Soundcheck and for an audience of thousands at a NASCAR Nextel Cup race in New Hampshire.
