About Spindle
Spindle is an alternative rock band originally from Maui, Hawaii, now in Bellingham, Washington. Band members are Gina Wong (vocals, piano, guitar, synths), Amber Blahnik (drums, percussion) and Tammy Lee (bass, vocals). Gina Wong began playing music as Spindle in 1997, with the aspiration of forming an all-female rock band. In 1999, Amber Blahnik joined and Spindle officially became a band. Tammy Lee joined the line-up in 2006. Spindle has since been making headway in the underground, independent music scene. Spindle is known for their unique sound which intertwines multiple genres; from alternative rock to trip hop, electronica to carny music, with a dark and atmospheric edge. 2006 saw the release of Spindle’s 5 track EP, “hell hath no fury...” on Spindle Records. This EP includes five of the band's original songs, including "Sand & Stories", "Whelm" and "Carousel". The band also has one promotional disc titled "Weeds and Infidelities," which features covers of the Smashing Pumpkins songs "X.Y.U." and "Blue Skies Bring Tears," as well as an original song titled "Silly Billy." --- Spindle may also refer to a Cincinnati-based alternative rock band, fronted by Grant Arnow and founded in 1999. The band landed an album deal with Triple Crown Records in 2003, fueled by local interest their shows and opening for bands like Finger Eleven, Oleander, and Flickerstick. Self-Serve Surgery was to become their label debut in 2004, but the album was shelved after Arnow relocated to California. He went on to found the band Takota a short time later. Spindle continued without Arnow, playing shows in the Cincinnati area.
