The Trashmen hail from the twin cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. This Minnesota self-contained Rock 'n' Roll group consists of leader Dal Winslow on rhythm guitar; Tony Andreason, lead guitar; Bob Reed, bass guitar; and drummer, Steve Wahrer. Through the years they have continued to perform on various shows throughout the Midwest and the south. The Trashmen first hit the national Billboard pop music charts in December of 1963 with Surfin' Bird which peaked at #4. Their follow-up single, Bird Dance Beat reached #30 in 1964. The Trashmen have worked with Bobby Vee, Tommy Roe, Jan & Dean, Little Eva, Lou Christie and countless other recording stars. This latest CD "Comic Book Collector" consists of the original members and these selections are all newly recorded. Live, they sound exactly like they do on CD. They are considered one of the all time cult rock bands of the mid-sixties. They continue to appear frequently throughout the Midwest.
