Cock Confidence



Surly and independent. Those are three of the words to describe neo-punk aspirators Cock Confidence. With their freshman release, Better than Mine, Cock Confidence delivered unparalleled music for the under three minute song aficionado. Featuring strong three chord structures and melodic monotones, Cock Confidence and dynamic lead singer Igor Rüff from Iceland take their angry, angsty, head-slammin' set to roadhouses and urban venues across America, Europe, and portions of countries with -istan in their names. Chimera Records® is thrilled to bring their power punque sounds to the new music scene.

Bent Spoons


Blending country and indie into newfangled sounds worthy of heavy rotation, Bent Spoons defies industry norms by taking washboard sounds and dulcimer reverb with sousaphone melodies and steel guitar jams. Erin Wright, Mike Toole, Ben Frange, Alex Barbour, Sarah Ten, and Splinter all bring Bent Spoons to life using only vintage instruments, analog recording equipment, and layered, 16-track reel-to-reel Tascam built symphonies of craftsmanship. Chimera Records® A&R team discovered Bent Spoons playing in a restored truck stop off State Highway 7 near Lawton in Oklahoma where a devoted following were often present for their extraordinary sets of music and their transmedia displays of ironic taxidermy.

Another amazing new act signed exclusively to Chimera® is Unripe Fruit. At first listen you'll think Queen-meets-Dead Kennedys, but after multiple listens you'll start to get a fresh perspective on the new music scene. These glam punks are gifted! Their freshman full length album, 11 Herbs and Spices, is going to take Unripe Fruit places.
