BIO READINGS

"The REASON that video killed the radio star"

Combine the classic sound of The Beatles, Queen, The Beach Boys, give it a modern twist, and what do you get? That's right! It is a deliciously irresistible Cosmic Punch that's out of this world! The tastes are wide and varied, which brings a unique flavor to the music. The newest release, "For All Nerdkind," was released on June of 2024.

The music is all the fun of the 70s, 80s, and 90s deep-fried and served on a stick for your auditory pleasure.

Previous Cosmic Punch releases, AutoReverse (2018) are available through KnifeFight Media Records and 2014's, "FM Stereo," was on Tate Music Group.

 

2020 brought change as Cosmic Punch became a solo vehicle for veteran producer/songwriter, Juan "Punchy" Gonzalez.  "The Club of Nerd Dads," the previous release, showed "Punchy" playing all the instruments and handling all the vocals.  Special guest performances by Lovely Hudson on "I Love You and Stuff" and Michael Romeo (Symphony x) on "Teenage Rage."

2024 was the release of "For All Nerdkind."  This record is a 9-song collection of more over-produced sci-fi drivel!  Guest performance by Samantha Martin on "Woke" is the only collaboration on this record.  Again, all the songs were written and performed by Juan "Punchy" Gonzalez. 

 

Expect “Nerd Greatness” from the artist that is synonymous with feel-good music complete a music video package that will have lyric videos or music videos for most, if not all, of the songs.  With so much of the material covering the often-controversial subject of science-fiction fandom, one can expect to find protesters at shows dressed in original series Star Trek battling it out with ST Discovery fans!
