An unpredictable music experiment of wordy persuasions and sonic manipulation.

THE PHUNK & THE WANGLE

New ALBUM 2026

Phunk & Wangles prepare to release a new album and countdown into 2026 with the release of their new song of the year, Punch The Clock, out today.

Punch The Clock also sets the tone for the upcoming album
Take Your Shot. As the opening track, it drops listeners straight into the mindset of the record before moving through familiar territory with singles Eddie, My Little Freak Out, and Sometimes, then expanding into new material that highlights the range and diversity of the songs to come.

Phunk & Wangles began as a songwriting and recording project between J. Phunk (Joseph Pinheiro) and D. Wangles (Doug Elliott of The Odds/Strippers Union/Bander). What started as a surprise family connection turned into an instant creative spark, leading to three songs that captured their shared energy, humour, and love of music.

Since then, Phunk has continued recording under the Phunk & Wangles name while Doug returned to The Odds. Building on the foundation they created together, Phunk has released two full albums — The Phunk Philes and Songs in the Key of Phunk — exploring his signature mix of indie rock, soul, and storytelling.
