Bio

Project: Ehknkore 1996-present. Ehknkore (spelled as Eckankore on some releases)had its origin as a solo project founded by Ron K. in a bedroom of a house in Mar Vista, CA. The first line-up released a 7-inch EP. One side was Ehkankore, the other side was Musicide, the Noise project of Mike Sullivan.

The first live performance occurred in 1996 at the Impala Café. By this time Paul Malcolm had briefly joined the group based on an ad that had been placed in No Life Records. Malcolm was soon replaced by E.J. Nervo. K. met Nervo at another record store, Green Hell in Sherman Oaks, CA. The lne-up in Nervo and K. was a fruitful one, resulting in a number of gigs in such places as the Spanish Kitchen, Ahh Capella, Cobalt Café, the Garage,the Smell and the Echo Park Flm Center. More attention has been paid to performances than physical products after the fact.

When E.J. decided that he did not want to be a part of Ehkankore Chuck Foster was recruited. This line-up played a number of shows in including two shows at the Smell. Unfortunately this line-up ended when Chuck moved to New York City. Ehkankore has continued as a solo project after that time, with Ron K as the sole member of the group.
