The Defibulators
The DEFiBULATORs have emerged as one of the most engaging live acts from the thriving roots scene in Brooklyn, NY - melding, bluegrass rockabilly, dixieland, and punk into their own eclectic sound. Their shows are irresistibly infectious and rowdy (likened to watching "Hee-Haw on mescaline"), as they wield an arsenal of guitars, banjos, fiddles, and junkyard percussion, with relentless energy and rusty virtuosity. The DEFiBULATORs jump-start new life into vintage country music and deliver a unique sound that's anything but old timey. Razor sharp harmonies and surreal lyrics illuminate songs that are gritty and witty; spinning tales of deception, debauchery, depleted bank accounts, fanaticism, vintage firearms, biological anomalies, airline intoxication, and animal ennui.

They have placed their songs in feature and short films, television, and online productions. Most recently composing and recording the original score for the feature film, SKIPTRACERS, an indie hillbilly epic set in rural Alabama.  The DEFiBULATORs have self-published their very own 24-page Coloring Book, and are currently working on a digital web series, set inside the band’s vehicle (a '77 Dodge ambulance), detailing their fictitious encounters with hipsters in distress. The DEFiBULATORs proudly serve as the house band for THE REJECTION SHOW at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater and Comix in NYC. They have also played numerous festivals in NYC, including events for Central Park Summerstage, Guinness, Macy's, and The New Yorker Magazine.
