The Femurs are a two piece band originally from NYC but currently living and residing in sweet sunny Seattle.



Femurs are made up of guitar and drums and they switch instruments between songs.



Both Rob Femur and Colin Femur are childhood friends that met in the halls of the third grade NY school system..while in that system the Femurs developed a "homespun" punk / pop/ rock style that found its home in parks, basements, punk houses and highschool dances...



Upon moving to Seattle the Femurs started to create a louder and more harmonized version of their ramones-esq homespun punk...


The femurs just released a brand new cd on their own label called "modern mexico"

The Femurs "Modern Mexico" is a 12 song cd that shows off their ability to record songs...The cd is a proud moment in Femurs history and is here for your enjoyment...

They have toured the west coast many times and have played sxsw for the past 2 years...




"Modern Mexico" is a combination of two EPs...the first 6

songs were recently recorded and cost mucho dinero...the second 6 songs originally appeared as an EP in 2006 under the name "Jack Caffery vs. Chuck Scarborough" (which was named after our two favorite NYC news anchormen)
