The Groovie Ghoulies
|
The Groovie Ghoulies are a pop-punk band from Hollywood, California in the 1990s and 2000s.
They are heavily influenced by The Ramones, The Dickies, 1960s garage rock artists such as The Seeds, early glam rock bands such as the early works of The Sweet and Suzi Quatro, and bubblegum artists such as The Troggs, The Monkees, The Ohio Express and early Neil Diamond. They have done punkified covers of several of Diamond's songs, such as "Kentucky Woman" and "Look Out, Here Comes Tomorrow".
Many of their songs have horror and science fiction themes.
The band is comprised of Kepi, the vocalist/bassist/frontman; Roach, the guitarist and occasional backup vocalist; and Scampi, the newcomer to the band and drummer.

- "The biggest grossing acts of this year were the Rolling Stones, Metallica, and Neil Diamond. We're
the band that combines all three together." - Kepi
