Artist History Historically WUKOTO has maintained that 'the stereo record' should be played only with a stereo cartridge and needle to avoid... damage. SADIE THE GOAT, best known for having had her nose chewed off in a cat fight with MIDGE 'TARBOX' CUNNINGHAM, says: "I sell their CDs in my shop with a money back guarantee!"

Group Members MEET Sherry Cherry, ex-CIA cobrand operative and guitarist. MEET Sherry's split, Yung Mo Cherry, genius string interpreter and jack-of-all-trades. MEET CJ, keeper of the congealed misery and lead singer, brazenly stolen from those gun toting rockers "the William Tell Routine."

Instruments vocals, guitars, genetic readers/handhelds

Press Reviews ALL FEED, everyone's beloved 'legislated media monopoly', has enforced a blacklist against WUKOTO since the band's alleged involvement in the Reincarnation Vacation Riots of 2597. WUKOTO's response: Reincarnation Vacation Riots? No, we didn't form until the Water Riots of 2598. Sheesh. Blacklist us for that if you will! (These evil beaurocracies can't get SHMANK-DANKEE right!)
