About Me

Formed by accident in 1999 by four individual coverband veterans, TK-421 has since built an impressive following based on great original rock songwriting, pro-level recording, and powerful live shows. Originally designed as an 80's Hairband tribute, the members of what would become TK found that their chemistry was undeniable. Tossed around guitar riffs quickly became great songs, and hummed vocal melodies quickly became strong lyrical hooks. This was a band that was focused right from the start. The works since created are powerful and driving, yet still manage to be radio friendly. Their self recorded and produced demo cd "Hollow" has received airplay on numerous radio stations in the Southeast US and even abroad in Germany and Australia. "Hollow" even earned them ..1 honors as Roanoke, Virginia's Local Album of the Year. TK-421 has built a strong reputation for putting on a live show that is pure rock served up as it is supposed to be... loud, aggressive, and delivered with an incredible amount of energy. This is a band who plays what it means, and means what it plays.Simply put, TK-421 is the total rock package.
