The Spoon Benders are “snarling, swaggering punk…”. (Cervanté Pope for Willamette Weekly) Katie Wise from Rag Tag Magazine calls them, “one of the most undaunted and progressive bands within city limits.” The up and coming garage-psych punk band, hailing from Portland, OR forged their sound and debut album Dura Mater in studio and on the stage in 2019 before the COVID-19 shutdown. Inspired by bands such as GøGGS, the Pleasure Seekers, Black Sabbath, Thee Oh Sees, and the Stooges, the Spoon Benders create a diverse and highly dynamic sound that promises to hold your undivided attention.
