The rockabilly's call them Psycho, the Psychobilly's call them Rockabilly. They're not so into labels or scenes they "just call it rock and roll", but they can roll with either one.

Jack Rainwater, Guitar, Vocals. Guitar influences range from Iggy and The Stooges, Iron Maiden, Motor head Link wray and Carl Perkins. Vocal Influences, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Joe Strummer, Ian Hunter. Jacks guitar sound can move from a country boogie to a shredding metal solo in the blink of an eye, while vocally Jack likes to mix a little country crooning with some 70's hard rock stylings to keep things interesting. 

Armando Nienhuser, Bass, vocals. A seasoned Veteran of several regional Rockabilly acts including Billy Dwayne and the Creepers, James Hunnicutt and the Revolvers and Knut Bell and the Blue Collers Mondo brings a ferocity to the Upright Bass and is an unmovable force to be reckoned with both on stage and off, with hundreds of HMS shows under his belt and huge audience approval Mondo has truly earned his rightful place as a Hard Money Saint. 

Nich Scott, Drums, vocals. Old school Punk is where Nich cut his teeth on drums and while he brings this energy to the Saints it's obvious his heart is in first wave Psychobilly. Taking the beats from the first two HMS recordings and turning them into his own Nich has quickly won over fans all over the region and continues to take the material to new levels nightly. His experience as an upright bassist allow him to lock in with Mondo and create the run away train rhythm that fans have come to expect. 

The aggressive dedication and heart of the Hard Money 'Saints (Now!) rhythm section coupled with the versatility of Rainwaters vocals and guitar provide a show that keeps the audience lambasted from start to finish. 

The style of songs vary enough and are delivered with such a rapid fire pace that audiences are engaged for the whole set. Hard Money Saints music originates from traditional Rockabilly and Country But adds the influences of modern rock punk and metal to create a unique more original sound.

The Yuppie Tavern is located in the Yuppie Tavern in Totem Lake near Guitar Center (formerly Cowboys)
