The bands four members are Johnny Pierro (vocals), Tom Rutledge (guitar/vocals), Todd Rutledge (bass/vocals), and Marc Harman (drums). Influences in the band come from various styles of alternative, hard rock, and post hardcore. [...] They've played a hand full of live shows covering areas of Wisconsin and Illinois [...] The Forty Whacks are guaranteed to pique their listeners interest and entertain their growing fan-base." - myspace.com/thefortywhacks
