Biography

Beginning his musical career in the 1960’s, Michael Yonkers is most well known as an early purveyor of the musical style called “skronk-rock”. Skronk-rock is a nearly atonal form, but the genre is given grace through Yonkers’ subtle manipulations of the sonic palette.
1969’s Microminiature Love (1969 - Destijl, 2002 - Subpop, 2003), the culmination of his artistic peak, ran the gamut of the era’s styles, from Jefferson Airplane-ish acid-rock (Jasontown) to voodoo-blues (Boy In The Sandbox, Smile Awhile).
