Distorted Penguins on purevolume™

Rock / Alternative / Pop

The key to understanding Distorted Penguins is knowing that it is possible to blend rock & roll with horns and NOT come out with ska as a result! The result, claims DP frontman Derek Shank, is... "SEX!" This band will make you re-evaluate your opinion of marching band instruments!!

For the past decade or so this off-the-wall sextet has traveled up and down the Eastern Seaboard spreading the word, as well as doing a crazy national tour in 2003. And as if that weren't enough, they have been selling literally thousands of CDs in the meantime! Make no mistake about it: This is one of the hardest-working bands in all the land! In 2005, they will play at least 150 dates. That's almost half the year touring, holmes! After an incredible summer of touring all around the beautiful east coast promoting the release of their third full-length studio release, BILLIAM ROCKWELL (and shouting nasties at moderately attractive women in at least 9 states), the boys will be taking the touring down a notch for the next few months. But rest easy... they will still be traveling far and wide to entertain the masses on a regular basis.

Anyone who has seen DP's live show knows four things: (1)DP's energy is infectious, (2)Resisting the raw power of their rock & roll is an exercise in futility, (3)DP will make you go NumberThree in your jeans, and (4)It is possible for six guys to drink a case of beer in 3 and a half minutes.
