Many of Spank Rock’s most hardened fans have been quietly wondering whether collaborating vocalist Amanda Blank would possibly make it out to Australia for their upcoming summer tour. Well, wonder no more, as the group’s tour agent Civil Society has revealed that Amanda – the voice on Spank Rock’s dancefloor hit ‘Bump’ – will in fact be touring with the boys this December and January.

Described as “edgy and fierce (and more than slightly filthy minded)”, Blank is a Philadephia native and member of the group Sweatheart. Her unique vocal approach has seen her collaborate with artists like M.I.A., Teki Latex of TTC, Ghostface, and Spank Rock’s producer XXX Change. She also recently signed to American label Downtown Records, home to Gnarls Barkley and Eagles of Death Metal.
