Wayne Gacy Trio is loosely based on the life and times of one of the world's most feared serial killers. The songs focus on bad gone worse, crawlspace remodeling, serial killers, mayhem, murder and how to turn a hobby into full time fun.
Jack Hanley - Vocals & Guitar, front man and founder started the group in Atlanta GA. in 2005, then relocated to Portland Oregon in 2006. Jack has a way about him to turn up the creepy to 11. His insites to the world of murder and mayhem make you wonder when he gets his skills, so to say. When you talk to Jack, he smiles at you like you're a meal for a man that hasn't eaten in 3 weeks. Creepy? thats the least of it.
Carlos Lee Lucas - Guitar, no one is really sure about his history, other than he has what he calls “a checkered past.” He shows no mercy when it comes to solos. His guitar tones strangle the listener’s ear with melodic mayhem. Carlos loves to tear it up and indeed has a way with a set of strings like nobody else. Often found looking for new and exciting things to do, he never fails to amaze when it comes to entertaining himself till all hours of the night.
Anthony Elwood Toole - Guitar, born in Ocala, Florida. Anthony was raised by his dad and moved to the West Coast in 1998 after what he said was a hugh blow up with his old man over something he called a hammer thing. He brings that certain flavor to the group. Seemly to woodshed like no one else. He has always had a thing for mexican wrestlers and is able to tear through the songs like a brand-new chainsaw.
Sean Lynn Woodfield - Bass, son of Randall Woodfield and Beth Wilmot. Sean was raised in a small community just off the I-5, his mom said his dad use to come in and get things at where she worked however he never really met his dad. Since then Sean has always loved traveling the I-5, he said it makes him feel a close connection to his dad. His nimble fingers bring a whole new meaning to low end.
Mark D. Rader - Drums, born in Wichita Kansas. At the age of 15, Mark moved to the Northwest and started playing with ropes and playing the drums. He was on vacation in Atlanta, Georgia, where he met Jack at a Japanese knot trying convention. When Jack relocated to the Northwest they hooked up. He puts a solid chokehold on the rhythm and doesn’t let go.
The tracks are from their upcoming CD "33" due out in late spring 2008. The band started recording the CD with the Atlanta line up and since moving to the west coast, the band has a brand spankin new killer line up and recorded the final tracks at Kung Fu Bakery in SE Portland.
now that they got this new music player,you guys should upload "That Smell".It's the creepiest cover I ever heard and would love to have it on my page with "Murder".

You guys are SO awesome! I LOVE your music, and yes I agree...You guys make ICP look like a mainstream average rock band. My favorite song is a toss up between Murder and Wait a Minute. You guys rule! Keep up the good work, and try to come and put on a show here in Kansas sometime!
