About Rock n' Shop at The Paper Box
Kleenex Girl Wonder has been a professional band for 17 years. Starting in the land of sticky 4-track tape, emigrating to the city of lyrically complex emotional pop music, branching into the wilds of rap music and finally re-purposing rap methods within the context of Pop-Rock-Ville, they have released 11 full-length albums and assorted other recorded things. Graham Smith is the singer-song-render-er who also plays bass, Thayer McClanahan is the guitar-wielder, Matt LeMay is the drums-abuser and producer of studio-recorded tunes. Their most recent album, "Secret Thinking," came out in March 2011 and was recorded in an architectural oddity (also known as a "partial folly") in Southern Illinois.
Mindtroll crept up from the Gowanus Canal in early 2010 and has since spent their time honing their inscrutable sound, which is not unlike the angriest children's choir.
The Fantastic Plastics
"We are the Future of The Future"
Classified somewhere along the lines of Electro Grunge, NewWave & ElectroPunk The Fantastic Plastics, a 2 piece live act, formed in Champaign Illinois in 2009 with founding members Tyson and Dylan. They built up a loyal following by playing epic shows and festivals including Pygmalion Music Festival 2009 & 2010.
In 2011 the band relocated to New York City where Miranda replaced Dylan in live shows on Synth & vocals. Miranda had been the band's costume designer since its inception in 2009. In December 2012 the band revealed their new look and sound at The Cake Shop - New York City.
Taking inspiration from concert acts such as Man or Astroman, Devo & Ziggy Stardust, The Fantastic Plastics blend video and costumes into their electric concerts. Today The Fantastic Plastics play live as a 2 piece band with Miranda on synth and Tyson on guitar. Drummond Bass, and Atari C-240 Video Music machine provides drum, bass, and 4-bit pixel video.
