The Wungabongas

The Wungabongas is a four-piece indie rock band from New York, United States.

Biography
After the break up of Tanzak Rush, Giovanni Herst (vocals, guitar, piano), Sophia Dent (bass guitar, backvocals) and Casey Malone (drums), formed The wungabongas, and debuted in 2006 with Speak Louder. They are currently signed to the New York-based indie label What's Your Rupture?. They also have been featured on the renowned BBC radiocast Peel Sessions 2004. Their profile was raised significantly after a string of well-received US tourdates in March 2006, culminating in a sold-out headlining spot in New York, and they supported British band Gizmo Clan on their UK tour in October 2006.
Fans of indie rock have latched onto Wungabongas's songs, which alternate between lo-fi and a jumbled jangle pop augmented with throbbing basslines and skronky piano jams, which makes for a classy yet song-driven sound powered by inspired vocals and a strong rhythmic sensibility.
