Built by Animals

About the artist

Built by Animals is a rock trio based in Brooklyn, New York. Guitarist Morgan VonAncken and Singer/Bassist Nick Crane originally met while attending Vassar College in Poughkeepsie New York. The two bonded over mutual musical influences including Yaz, Fine Young Cannibals, and Men at Work. After finishing school and playing together in various projects, VonAncken and Crane began to work exclusively with Westchester drumming legend Matt Graff, and this trifecta became the lineup for Built by Animals in early 2008.
