Cobra Starship, formed in New York City in 2005 by lead vocalist Gabe Saporta, is an American dance‑rock and electropop band celebrated for its high‑energy, party-ready sound. What began as Saporta’s solo project quickly grew into a full band lineup including Victoria Asher (keytar), Ryland Blackinton (guitar), Alex Suarez (bass) and Nate Novarro (drums), all of whom contributed to the band’s signature hook-laden style.

Their debut album, While the City Sleeps, We Rule the Streets (2006), gained underground attention—most notably through the single “Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)”. Their mainstream breakthrough came with Hot Mess (2009), featuring the double-platinum hit “Good Girls Go Bad” and the Top-10 single “You Make Me Feel…”.
