Flamingo Báy
“These guys will throw killer after show parties and will be a blast to hang out with on the tour bus, that's for sure, but don't ever, ever lend them any money. It's just a feeling I get. Great single though.- Listen With Monger
"The trio are stomping around in the Canadian swamp, all boozy maudlin blues ad hoc. Dirgey blues with Crazy Horse hues." - Sonic Masala
Flamingo Báy. Award Losing Rock Band. Your favorite band's favorite band.
They formed in Edmonton, Alberta in 2011. However in January 2012; Dillon Henningson (guitar,vocals) and Kris Gies (the bass, vocals) decided to see what was going on in the big city of Toronto....and they almost made it. Not long after arriving in Ontario, they met drummer Vince Rankin of Hamilton and away they went.
They were quick to work releasing a self titled EP in August of 2012. After meeting Steve Bigas at Porcelain Records they decided to work with him for their first full length album "Loco Pony". The lead single "Serpentine" gained a few spins on mainstream radio around Ontario and across the Prairies....well a couple of the Prairies anyway...not sure about Manitoba.
In April of 2015 they released their sophomore record "Steak n' Eggs" which earned a nomination for Rock Recording of the Year at the Hamilton Music Awards.
Flamingo Báy has been stompin' around ever since ready to show what their "Northern Swamp Rock" is all about. Dig it.
