Bonginator Concert History

Bonginator is a death metal band that writes songs about cannabis. It was formed by Erik Thorstenn (everything) at an unknown point in time in Massachusetts. Jake Thompson (drums) was in the band since 2022, but left the band the same year he joined. Then Ron Bernhaut (bass) and Joseph McNamara (drums) joined in 2022. Bonginator is not signed to any record label. They have released a demo in 2022, an EP in 2022 and a single in 2023. These were released independently and digitally through Bandcamp, Spotify and Apple Music.
