Valentine has always been the primary songwriter, both music and lyrics, of Electric Six. The band was originally composed of Dick Valentine ( Tyler Spencer, lead vocals), M (Cory Martin, drums), The Rock and Roll Indian (Anthony Selph, lead guitar), Surge Joebot (Joe Frezza, rhythm guitar), and Disco (Steve Nawara, bass and former member of The Detroit Cobras). Throughout the latter half of the 1990s, they played regularly at the Old Miami and the Gold Dollar in Detroit, the center of a scene that produced breakout acts like the White Stripes. The band formed in 1996 and was initially known as The Wildbunch, eventually dropping that name due to pressure from the British group of the same name.
