Pretty Boy Floyd Bio
Pretty Boy Floyd is a hard rock band from Hollywood, California formed in 1987. They are most famous for their 1989 debut album Leather Boyz With Electric Toyz and the two singles from it; "Rock and Roll" and "I Wanna Be With You".
The band broke up in 1991, but reformed in 1995 releasing several new records since that time. They continue on today.
The origins of the band can be traced back to a group named Doll in Hollywood, California. It featured vocalist Kerry Doll, guitarist Aeriel Stiles, bassist Vinnie Chas and drummer Kari Kane. Doll recorded demos but reportedly no albums.
They became Pretty Boy Floyd in 1987 when Kerry Doll was replaced by singer Steve "Sex" Summers. Soon Aeriel Stiles was replaced by New York guitarist Kristy Majors. The band's name was reportedly given to them by producer Kim Fowley who the band were working with at the time.
After 8 shows Pretty Boy Floyd were snapped up by MCA Records. Their debut album named Leather Boyz with Electric Toyz" was released in 1989 and produced by Motörhead producer Howard Benson. It reached #130 on the United States Billboard charts. The majority of the material features on the debut album was written by former guitarist Aeriel Stiles, however Kristy Majors wrote the song "Rock and Roll (Is Gonna Set the Night on Fire)".
Two singles, and accompanying promotional videos were released from the album; "Rock and Roll (Is Gonna Set the Night on Fire)" and "I Wanna Be With You", which gained rotation on MTV. They were also having success in Europe at the time, by being the cover subject of hard rock magazine Kerrang! on December 16, 1989.
Pretty Boy Floyd became embroiled in a dispute over the copyright of their band name, with a Canadian band also called Pretty Boy Floyd. The Canadian group released their debut Bullets and Lipstick the same year, but after a court case were forced to change their name to Tommi Floyd (the name of their frontman).
In early 1990 Pretty Boy Floyd were supposed to tour the United Kingdom in support of The Quireboys, but pulled out as their schedule was packed with shooting their second video "I Wanna Be With You".
Their music featured on two movie soundtracks, first the demo version of "48 Hours" was included on the 1989 The Karate Kid, Part III film. Two years later the previously unreleased "Slam Dunk" was released on the Ellen Barkin movie Switch soundtrack. However, by 1991 MCA Records had stopped supporting the band financially when they needed to tour, coupled with in-band fighting they soon decided to disband.
