Bonk

bonk.jpg

Bonk is a collective of four musicians who seek to bring out their passion for avant-garde and jazz music. The band plays original music as well as lesser-known tunes from the history of avant-garde jazz and swing. The musical landscape and pallet of this group is frequently high pitched and chamber-like because of its orchestration. The band ties this up successfully in it's search for a balance of frequencies, as well as stretching the limit of their range as a whole. As recent Alumni and current student at the Berklee College of Music and the New England Conservatory, Bonk has been playing around the New-England area for the past year, and have recently gained much of the public live show audience's eyes and ears.
