Men, Women & Children (formerly known as Easy Tiger, Torpedo[citation needed]) was an electropop band formed in 2004 by ex-Glassjaw guitarist Todd Weinstock. They released their self-titled debut album in 2006.
They have supported acts such as Metric, Gang of Four, Rx Bandits, De La Soul, Brand New, The Format, Snoop Dogg, Head Automatica and ¡Forward, Russia!. They also headlined their own shows with supporting acts like We Are The Fury.
On June 13, 2007, according to a blog posted on their Myspace page, the band separated itself from Warner/Reprise Records citing a lack of distribution of their first album as the major reason they wanted to leave.
On November 19, 2008, according to a blog posted by Todd and Nick on Myspace, three had left the band, including Todd, Nick, and David "Skully" Sullivan-Kaplan. The primary reason for the departures was a lack of communication caused by the distance between band members. Their last show with the band was on December 29, 2008 in New York City.
Remaining members TJ and Rick Penzone have moved forward as a two-piece with a rotating lineup of musicians for live shows. Todd and Nick are now part of Cubic Zirconia. Skully has since married and lives in the UK and currently plays for Razorlight.
