BIOGRAPHY

King Cobb Steelie is a Canadian indie rock band formed in 1991 from Guelph, Ontario, and later based in Toronto. The band's most successful single was 1997's "Rational", from the album Junior Relaxer. Their music fuses elements of punk, grunge, funk, jazz and dance.

HISTORY

In 1993 the band, named for a special kind of toy marble, released its self-titled album, which fused progressive rock with dubstep sampling. In 1994 the band was signed to the EMI label. In July 1997 the band performed at Graceland in Vancouver.

Percussionist Robin Easton participated as drummer 14 in the Boredoms 77 Boadrum performance which occurred on July 7, 2007 at the Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park in Brooklyn, New York.[6] That year King Cobb Steelie released an album, Destroy All Codes.

After several years of only occasional activity, the band played a 20th anniversary benefit show at Lee's Palace in Toronto, Ontario on Saturday, April 16, 2011 with proceeds going towards Ontario Hands & Voices, an organisation dedicated to supporting families with children who are deaf or hard of hearing. In the fall of 2012, the band re-released Project Twinkle on Pheromone Recordings and performed the album live in its entirety at the Horseshoe Tavern and at Van Gogh's Ear in Guelph as part of the Stay Out Of The Mall XI festival.

On December 12, 2013 King Cobb Steelie released Goodbye Arcadia, a 4 track EP. This was the first new material in 9 years. That year they performed a concert in Toronto as part of the Long Winter concert series.
