The Forty Nineteens sound was forged in LA’s late ’80’s underground scene. Their music can be described as Alt 80’s, Garage Rock, Americana, Pop/Punk, with a Motor City powerplant and good-time raucousness.
Detroit native John Pozza and Pittsburgh born Nick Zeigler played with influential LA bands The Leonards and Mary’s Danish. Scoring commercial radio hits and CMJ recognition with ‘Don’t Crash the Car Tonight’ and ‘She Said Goodbye,’ they toured and played the nations top clubs including Raji’s in LA and CBGB’s in NYC, and opened for bands such as: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mike Ness, and Weezer. They also have had music placed on ABC’s Ugly Betty, and were mentioned in Trouser Press.
Their debut effort No Expiration Date was produced by David Newton of The Mighty Lemon Drops, mastered by Paul Dugre, and released on Heyday Records. It is a modern take on The Leonards powerful sound with Dave’s warm harmony arrangements and (Stevie Wonder sideman) Kevin McCourt’s Hammond B3 punch. New Hampshire bred guitarist Chris Whelton adds his Ballou Brothers blues alt-country sensibilites, while Californian Chuck Gorian tops it off with his SoCal punk guitar sound. Include influences by The Ramones, Elvis Costello, The Stooges, Steve Wynn, The Clash, Tom Petty, Dramarama, Plimsouls, Psychedelic Furs, Guided By Voices, Flesh for Lulu, Johnny Rivers, Beat Farmers, and you have No Expiration Date.
The Forty Nineteens continue the Motor City high-energy tradition that has earned them a loyal following from LA to Temecula’s wine country. They’ve recently opened for garage rock legends The Fleshtones at Pappy and Harriet’s in Joshua Tree. It all combines for one hell of a good time.
