Hailing from Palm Desert, CA, USA Brant Bjork began playing with guitarist Josh Homme, bassist Nick Oliveri, and singer John Garcia while they all were still in high school, resulting in the formation of Kyuss. Bjork helped issue what has become one of the decade’s landmark releases, 1992’s “Blues for the Red Sun”, which almost single-handedly created the ensuing stoner rock movement. Bjork also showcased his songwriting talents, single-handedly penning two of the album’s highlights, “
Green Machine” and “50 Million Year Trip (Downside Up)”.
This line up did not last long, as shortly after “Blues for the Red Sun” was released, Oliveri left and Bjork followed the same path soon after the band’s famed release, “Welcome To Sky Valley” in 1994. The same year, Bjork helped produce his surfing buddies Fu Manchu “No One Rides For Free”. Bjork then joined on as the drummer and helped release albums such as 1997’s “Action Is Go”, 1999’s “Eatin’ Dust”, 2000’s “King Of The Road” and 2001’s “California Crossing”.
During this whole time period, Bjork also built up Duna Records (formerly called El Camino Records). From this label launched Bjork’s solo career beginning with the revered 1999’s “Jalamanta”. Other solo realeases include “Keep Your Cool” and “Local Angel”. Also he has put out “Brant Bjork & The Operators” in 2002 and “Saved by Magic” by Brant Bjork and the Bros in 2005. Apart from his blossoming solo career, he has also put together Che with Alfredo Hernandez (ironic because Hernandez replaced him as the drummer for Kyuss) and Dave Dinsmore of Unida.
