In 2008 City Beat said this about Neverland, Kentucky's Wonky Tonk: "Sweetly naive Folk music that has the off kilter lilt of Bjork raised in the Midwest and brought up on Woody Guthrie songs." Founder Jasmine Poole ("Wonky") plays acoustic guitar and banjo sounds like "Janis Joplin buying Dylan at Walgreens." She shares vocals with fiddle and mandolin player, Moriah Lawson and Nick Mitchell on melodica, mandolin and piano. As for the group's name, Nick Mitchell describes it like this: " 'Wonk' is the new word for Punk, so we just use it all the time. Moriah has a Bluegrass background, but I think we (he and Wonky) have more Punk and Rock influences. We just happen to like the sound of these instruments." http://www.citybeat.com/cincinnati/article-16912-wonk-the-new-punk.html
