Growing up in the shadow of his father, pop yodeling sensation Hedly James II, Jimmy experienced the good life up close and personal. Desperate to make his own name as a performer, he cut all ties with his illustrious father and formed Danger Couch as a factory outlet for his own immensely creative energies. Rumor has it that Jimmys father is legally changing his name to avoid any potential association with D.C.
Wilheim Smoder: Guitar, Explosives, Espionage
Despite early success as the charismatic leader of the Holiday Liberation Army, Wilh found himself unfulfilled in that exalted role. He took a long sabbatical to find himself, which he suspected was being held by evil ninjas in downtown Memphis. Upon meeting James, he threw his newly found self into the seething cauldron of angst that is Danger Couch in a heroic yet foolhardy attempt to forget his past. It is uncertain at this time however, whether or not his past has entirely forgotten him.
Ruckford MacMullit: Vocals, Acorns, Origami
Raised by a fierce pack of carnivorous squirrels, Ruckford had an awkward childhood followed closely by an awkward adolescence and soon after by an awkward adulthood. Emotionally stunted by his early experiences, Ruckus, as he is infectiously known, has spent his life in a doomed quest for that mythical state of Normal. Searching for acceptance, Ruckus had several near brushes with significance; including a runner up spot on the ill-fated mens Olympic Synchronized Jacuzzi team and holding a position on the prestigious Norwegian Ski Rescue Team for nearly three days. Drawn to the tomb-like nurturing warmth of Danger Couch, Ruckus finally found piece, but what that piece is of remains to be seen.
Influences
Danger Couch usually operates under the influence of copious quantities of caffeine but has been known to imbibe that most esoteric of cocktails, the Flaming Stephen. Described by its victims as a speeding dump truck with a smooth citrus finish, the Flaming Stephen is a secret mixture of mostly fruit juices so devastatingly tart that one sip leaves the brain instantly dehydrated, inducing states of either extreme creativity or complete catatonia. Despite its colorful name, the Flaming Stephen is neither homosexual nor combustible, it is however extremely volatile and must be painstakingly assembled by highly skilled scientists under the most carefully controlled conditions. The recipe is a closely guarded secret and was kept under maximum security at Los Alamos until it was mistakenly stolen by Chinese agents who mistook its complex formula for plutonium enrichment equations. It is hoped that the Chinese government will see the immense and unpredictable peril inherent in the recipe and safely destroy it before anyone is injured.

Danger Couch bears a musical similarity to Anemic, Big Daddy and the Bratwackers, siXth step, Stonecry and other semi-anonymous groups of musicians.
LOVE THE COUCH! Put this junk on your profile, NOW!
Copy and paste the following code into your 'About Me' Section:
Tales of D.C.'s origin are as varied as the individuals who fabricate them. For many years the Industrial Accident theory dominated public opinion, but recently the Alien Brain Exchange theory has risen in prominence with the ever-present Government Conspiracy theory waiting for its moment in the sun. Regardless of how or why they came to be, one fact is inescapably clear: they are here among us and the world will never be precisely the same again...which is probably a good thing because it was starting to feel a little stale and kind of lumpy in the middle...yes, it was definitely ready for a change and the abrupt reappearance of Danger Couch was definitely the kind of change it definitely needed.
Banned in several states for their near hypnotic influence over women, Danger Couch has had to adopt an ever more erratic touring schedule. Presently they are unable to venture far from their hidden lair deep in the lower intestines of Memphis, Tennessee. A situation that would stymie a lesser band, this circulatory constriction has only served to fuel their creative engines, while simultaneously washing their creative windshields, flushing their creative radiators and making a good bit of progress cleaning their creative upholstery.
What motivates these mighty masters of madness and musical mayhem? Countless scores of specialist, analysts and Significant Others have repeatedly pondered this question with the only answer being the demand for more money. The couchmen remain an enduring mystery as obscure to themselves as to their throngs of adoring fans.
