Psycho Gypsy was a band that formed at the height of the GRUNGE era in Phoenix, AZ. 1992 by Eddie Electra (who later would join Hollywood's infamous PEPPERMINT CREEPS): on vocals and guitar; and Timm Tantrum: vocals and bass. The band would undergo a few lineup changes before the most popular lineup which included Erik "BD" Johnson on lead guitar, and Mykel (R.I.P) on drums. PSYCHO GYPSY were proudly Phoenix's ONLY glam rock band. Coming off a long succession of local glam bands in the late '80s, Eddie and Tim thought long and hard about ditching the makeup when they formed the group in 1992. It was a time when grunge bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam had taken over the driver's seat on the radio airwaves and bands such as Motley Crue, Poison, and Guns N' Roses were forced to ride in the back seat. For exactly that reason, Eddie and Tim decided to champion the art of frosty lipstick, glittery scarves, and black eyeliner while performing their style of raunchy and sleazy rock 'n roll. It was very hard to even get a gig. However, it wasn't long before the band "caught on" , and eventually PSYCHO GYPSY had regular "gigs" throughout the Phoenix area. Their rock and roll theatrics and cool tunes landed them opening slots for many major bands of the day, including Poison,Warrant, Cinderella, L.A. Guns, Slaughter, Pretty Boy Floyd, Shotgun Messiah, Tyketto, and Bang Tango, as well as Tuff, The Zeros, Atomic Punks, and many other bands. Venues Psycho Gypsy have performed at included H
