Nip ‘n’ Tuck was conceived in 1976 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and consisted of Gary Rue (guitar/vocal), Jeff Willkomm, bass/vocal), and Tilly (drums/vocal). The group was heavily influenced by pop idols of the time (Todd Rundgren, The Raspberries, Steely Dan, Edgar Winter) and termed a ‘melodic rock band’ by the local press (with which the band agreed).

They have all confessed that this humble group of musicians are also the best of friends, and after looking at their careers in their respective rear view mirrors, they've decided to give it another go, purely for the joy of playing music together.

They have evolved into a dedicated core trio (with occasional auxiliary assistance) whose desire is to deliver music that is by degrees, music for the sake of music!
