Biography
the Knockoffs are a Sacramento, California punk rock group formed by Tom Hutchinson (formerly of Captain 9's and the Knickerbocker Trio). Still sporadically active their sound has changed along with their line up. Beginning as a lo-fi garage punk combo not too far from the Cap. 9's, by the late 90's the band embraced the sounds of the Stiff Little Fingers and Undertones. With the addition of Bobby Jordan and Dan Reynoso contributing songs and lead vocals the band became a mainstay in the local pop punk scene.
