The King Arthur proudly present Wonk Unit. A fiercely independent DIY UK punk band. 18+ gig.
Based in the South London town of Croydon, the band has its origins in lead singer/songwriter/guitarist Alex Wonk’s experience in rehab 25 years ago, where he found journaling and sharing his experience with others liberating. After completing his time in hospital, Alex set about crafting songs from his “addiction journals,” and from this sharing of unvarnished honesty, Wonk Unitwas born.
“Wonk Unit is a vessel for my life. My way of coping with its ups and downs,” says Alex. And their music has always intentionally defied easy classification and pigeonholing. “It was punk,” he says of the band’s earliest music, “but not as I’d previously known.”
