Sparkle Teeth began as a collaborative musical-visual project between Dan Kinnaley and his ceramicist wife, Kristen (KWatrous Ceramics). It served as a distraction from the stir-crazy early days of the Covid pandemic and allowed them to raise money for their service-industry friends via Bandcamp sales.

Now, Sparkle Teeth is a full band playing loud, fuzzy pop songs that pull from the rich history of punk and indie rock in the Midwest. It’s the sound of basement shows and dive bars, a celebration of the transcendence of the big riff, the eternal appeal of a hook, and an attempt to put it all on record.
