About

Hunx and His Punx is a rock and roll band from Oakland, California.

Hunx, real name Seth Bogart, started the band in 2008 after years of fronting a queer-themed electro outfit called Gravy Train!!!! The group's sound has been compared to 1960s girl groups and early power pop. Arizonan garage-pop musician Nobunny co-wrote some Hunx and His Punx songs while dating Bogart. The band played its first national tour of the United States alongside Jay Reatard and Nobunny in 2009. The band officially released its debut singles compilation album Gay Singles in 2010. Hunx co-owns Down At Lulu's, a hair salon in Oakland, California, with fellow Hunx band member Tina Lucchesi.
In January 2010, Hunx began a tour featuring an all-girl backing band. The new line-up has been identified on the tour and in new songs such as "Lovers Lane" as Hunx and His Punkettes.
In May 2010, LensCrafters began airing a commercial featuring a short audio clip of "Gimmie Gimmie Back Your Love."
