New York, United States (2005 – present)

Cobra Starship are a pop, punk, electro band, originally created by Midtown bassist/lead vocalist Gabe Saporta as a side project. They are perhaps best known for their song “Bring It (Snakes on a Plane),” which was included on the soundtrack of the action film Snakes on a Plane, as well as their hit single “Good Girls Go Bad” which featured Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester and peaked at 7 of the Billboard 100. The current members of Cobra Starship, along with vocalist Saporta, include Victoria Asher (nicknamed ‘Vicky-T’) (keytar), Ryland Blackinton (guitar), Alex Suarez (bass) and nate novarro (drums).

Cobra Starship, whose band name originates from vocalist and founder Gabe Saporta’s two “old vintage-style jackets,” was formed in 2005 in New York City, with Ryland Blackinton and Alex Suarez of Ivy League, Elisa Schwartz, and Nate Novarro (who previously worked as a drum tech for the bands Hidden in Plain View and Armor for Sleep).

During the summer of 2006, the band released the song “Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)”, a song written prior to the film’s release. Hence, the line “pop the cheap champagne, we’re goin’ down in flames,” ironically, was written even before the song was included. Following the release of the single, the band surged in popularity and recognition, in part due to the film’s success at the box office.

The band has had other media exposure such as their cover of Lionel Richie’s “Three Times a Lady” for the television reality show The Girls Next Door, and “Awww Dip,” for the TMNT film soundtrack, released on March 20, 2007. The instrumental “The Church of Hot Addiction” has also been used for a T.G.I. Friday’s advertisement.
