Stork formed on a summers day in 2015 during some time out of the water, when four mates decided to bash a few instruments around over a couple of West End cans – to which they fondly dedicate their song “Best Friend”. The name ‘Stork’ came about after Bassist Stokesy misspelt his own name whilst attempting to pimp out a surfboard – a mistake anyone could make he insists.
Raised on a diet of salt, sand and the occasional snag, Stork take influence from Aussie acts including Bad//Dreems, SKEGSS and Drunk Mums as well as international outfits like The Black Lips and FIDLAR. Add to this a healthy appreciation for classic acts such as The Boss and this sees Stork unleash a healthy blend of punk/surf/garage rock.
