Yonkers, NY Music Makers
The Wonder Licks — Original Songs and the True Sound of Yonkers, NY
Welcome to The Wonder Licks, a band that believes great music starts with real stories — and there’s no better place for those stories than Yonkers, New York.
From the Hudson River waterfront to neighborhoods that hum with history, our songs are born from life here: the grind, the laughter, and the rhythm of a city that never stops reinventing itself.
We write and perform original music that connects people — honest, soulful, and made for anyone who still believes live music can move you. Whether you’re catching a set downtown or streaming our latest track, you’ll feel Yonkers in every note — bold, vibrant, and alive.
Our Yonkers Sound & Style
Storytelling and soul — rock, Americana, and modern folk woven into something timeless and new.
Original Songs
Every track starts with a spark of truth — a moment, a story, a feeling. From introspective ballads to foot-stompers, our originals are made to make you feel something. We don’t cover the hits — we write the ones you haven’t heard yet.
Live Performances
Songs that breathe. Cozy venues, outdoor festivals, and spontaneous jams — energy, emotion, and authenticity shape every set. In Yonkers, every night brings a new sound.
Studio Recordings
We capture the magic — not polish it out. Analog warmth meets modern production so every track keeps its heartbeat, its laughter, and the beautiful imperfections of the room.
Songwriting & Collaboration
Music grows stronger when it’s shared. We create with Yonkers musicians, filmmakers, and spoken-word artists — keeping our sound evolving and our roots connected.
Real Stories, Real Songs
We don’t write for charts — we write for connection.
“They sound like Yonkers feels — grounded, soulful, and full of grit.”
“Every performance feels personal. You can tell they’re not just playing songs — they’re living them.”
“The Wonder Licks make music that stays with you long after the show ends.”
