Germaine Gemberling is a singer-songwriter from Minnesota. She grew up in St. Paul MN in the midst of the indie-rock explosion that brought us the Replacements, Husker Du, Jayhawks and Soul Asylum. She fronted the all-girl punk band SMUT (Spanish Fly/Twin-Tone Records) before leaving the Twin Cities for the peace, quiet and beauty of northern Minnesota. Since the move, she began writing songs on a...coustic guitar and formed the rock group "Darn Losers" who eventually morphed into "Shotgun Daisy." Shotgun Daisy released one album on SMA Records before eventually morphing into "Junkboat," her latest folk-rock incarnation. When not fronting Junkboat, Germaine performs acoustically, accompanied by Rich Mattson, a guitarist/singer who also records her albums at his Sparta Sound recording studio way up north, in Minnesota.
