Blondo - Nebraska's fresh, accessible, energetic pop punk music weaves catchy melodies with lyrical stories inspired by people we’ve all encountered in our lives. The band's music is influenced by artists such as Blink-182, Green Day, and Jimmy Eat World. Blondo's first release, "Heritage" was a solo EP of original songs recorded in Lincoln, Nebraska and released on September 27, 2019, on the Coyote Face Record label.
Blondo's shows are fun and engaging and put crowds in a great mood. They perform regularly in Lincoln and Omaha, and recently opened for the Dylan Doyle Band and Real Friends, respectively, at the Reverb Lounge and the Slowdown.

Alex Malnack
Guitar/vocals
Alex Malnack is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist who has been writing and recording songs for several years. Blondo began as a pop-punk/alternative project with a self-released EP titled "Heritage" in the fall of 2019. The desire to play music live led Malnack to seek out some local, like-minded talent. Malnack joined a short-lived, yet highly-talented band, The Plain Greats, whose performers originated from several Nebraska towns. In that band, he was introduced to Tristan Moore and Garrett Helling. The trio clicked and the Blondo band was formed. They are now writing songs with hopes of recording new tracks soon. Malnack also lends his notable guitar skills to his father, Brent Malnack’s numerous recording projects.
