Their style is a fusion of rock/metal and drum n' bass themes. Musical influences include The Prodigy, Jimi Hendrix, Skunk Anansie, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Rage against the machine, and Queens of the Stone Age. The band currently consists of: *Koa Spencer: songwriter, guitars, keyboards *Nat Spencer: songwriter, sampling sequencing and bass *Talitha ("Tally") Spencer: singer, songwriter *Blaine Elderton: MC/Vocalist *DJ Dan Brown (aka Danny): DJ and deck spinning When asked, "Jynxt - where does that name come from?" Tally replied, "We chose the name Jynxt as we thought it was strangely symbolic of certain features in our childhood while growing up. We lived in many different countries, in the far east especially, where we encountered a few close calls". Biography Koa and Nat Spencer are children of Jeremy Spencer, a former early member of the original Fleetwood Mac. In 1971, while on tour with Fleetwood Mac, Jeremy abruptly left the band to join the Children of God, a new religious movement (now called The Family International). He persuaded his wife, Fiona, to fly out with their two children to join the sect. Koa was born in New York. Fiona went on to have three more daughters with a new partner, one of whom is Talitha. Talitha was born in Greece, and speaks fluent Italian. There were eight children altogether; all but one have since left the cult.
