Hello all!

We are Cyrus Youngman and the Kingfishers, a folk rock quintuple that hopes to slap you out of your seat only to then cosset you back to sleep.

On harmonica, acoustic guitar, vocals and head apathy agitator, we have Cyrus Youngman.

Andrew Trefny's "sunshine and rainbows"  lead guitar style can be easy to cruise with but be mindful if you let it take the wheel.  You may end up in a field of peaches or an existential crisis.

Next we ha-....oh wait...hold on.  What's that rustling over there?  Is it a boy? Is it a man? Is it a opossum with gloves!? Well, sort of.  It's Andrew Roti on greasy, grimy angst bass and his dexterous rhythm section counterpart on drums, Mr. "Float like a butterfly; sting like Colin Oakley!"

Finally, on the fiddle from your lucid nightmares, or maybe just your best friend's wedding, we feature Sarah Coyl. 

Our debut EP, "Zodiac" is set to release on March 20th of 2015 which we can only describe as a folk rock odyssey that will inspire you to march on Wall Street, cower beneath your covers, and kiss your parents all at the same instant.  Four of the six tracks are uploaded here and we could not be more excited to share them with you and the world. 

Recently, the band welcomed James Cook onto the team as lead technician. Andrew Trefny's "blue cat" guitar was built and gifted to the band by James himself. If you are interested in purchasing a "Custom Cook" guitar or need an affordable repair (re-stringing, tune-up, string height, pickup height, intonation), you can contact James by email at jamescook274@hotmail.com or by phone at 317-529-6839!

Love,

Cyrus Youngman and the Kingfishers
