JonnyX and the Groadies (commonly written as JX:ATG) is a Portland, Oregon Cybergrind band. They consist of "JonnyX" (vocals/beatbox), "Nasty Travis" (guitar, drum machine programming, lyrics), "DJ Invisible Touch" (8-string bass) and "Professor Romagna" (master control).[1] JonnyX's music usually contains high tempo drum beats, heavily distorted guitar at high tempo, and bass playing medium-tempo semi-melodic riffs. The metal malaise is sometimes augmented with sinister synthesizer sounds.

[edit] Live Concerts
JonnyX and the Groadies only play all ages venues. Their live shows require much preparation because of their signature array of black lights, strobe lights, lasers, and fog machines.[2] Professor Romagna's setup contains a wide array of electronics that has occasionally blown circuits.
The members of JX:ATG play in an impressive and ever-expanding collection of spandex suits, and other outrageous costumes such as the memorable Santa suits.
