The Coathangers were a band before they were musicians. The trio started out in Atlanta as an excuse to hang out, play parties and weren’t going to let the fact that none of them knew how to play any instruments get in the way of having a good time. The backstory certainly added to the charm of early songs that resided somewhere between no-wave’s caustic stabs of dissonance and garage rock’s primal minimalism. In the seven years since their formation, The Coathangers have released a slew of records and toured across North America and Europe countless times.
The Coathangers are:
Julia Kugel (Crook Kid Coathanger – guitarist)
Meredith Franco (Minnie Coathanger – bassist)
Stephanie Luke (Rusty Coathanger – drums)
