The Fleshtones are Peter Zaremba (vocals, harmonica, & organ), Keith Streng (guitar & vocals), Bill Milhizer (drums & vocals), and Ken Fox (bass & vocals). Based in Brooklyn, New York, the quartet’s origins lie just a few miles north in Queens, where in 1975 Streng and original bass player Marek Pakulski rented “The House,” as it was infamously known, and found instruments down in the basement. To quote Keith: “How and why The Fleshtones started was that there was a place to do it!” Countless “Blue Whale Bashes,” Lower East Side sightings, and an endless string of gigs and records later, The Fleshtones continue to record and perform with a wit, passion, and energy that few bands can top.

Sweat: The Story of the Fleshtones, America’s Garage Band (by Joe Bonomo) http://on.fb.me/WFSbwh

Glitter, Rocking, Drinking. Eyeliner, Lipstick. Nail Polish, pretty things, late nights,

Down & dirty hip-shakin old school rock/ R& B; like a combination of the Cramps and 50s R&B/rock – sort of like Little Richard if he played the guitar, and if someone had rubbed Tabasco on his genitals. From Chicago.

Space Glam, Psycho Pop, Goth Punk…  BEAUTIFUL MUSIC TO KICK YOUR ASS!!

Simultaneously fierce and tender, she grabs your brains and spins them around like an atomic bendix. Other dimension sentiments and melodies via Mars crack the stormy sky into glassy shards of dangerous beauty. Vocals reminiscent of PJ Harvey, Patti Smith, Lene Lovich. Bass guitar thick, crunchy, hypnotic. Keytar is an orchestra on acid. Drums slice and dice it to perfection. LISA knows what she’s doing. And she knows what YOU’RE doing. So be careful.
