The roots of NIXON were established in April of 2004 when Tony Ash, Doug Walker, and Brian Foor began sporadically getting together to play music in the practice space shared by their then current bands, The Royalty and Tyrone. After several such occasions, it started to become clear that this new project was more fun and more satisfying than the other bands. The Royalty fell by the wayside and dissolved soon after, while Brian apparently decided to quit Tyrone. It wasn't long before Matt Haas was approached to fill the vocal slot (he had never sung in a band worth anything at this point). Around the same time, Matt Jaha, Tony's Coliseum bandmate, expressed interest in playing guitar. After three shows, Brian decided NIXON was not in his future. Within a month, Eric McManus, formerly of Philadelphia's Lickgoldensky, decided it was his position. That's pretty much it.
