Members: Joey Skidmore, John Marshall (16), Walter Paisley, Jabez Petefish, Jon McKinney

The band was first formed in Springfield, Missouri in the 70's by Walt Ressmeyer, guitarist Jabez Petefish and drummer John Marshal. All were avid fans of '60s garage rock sound and collected recordings by obscure artists and one-hit wonders of that era.

For years, the Nonesuch was a true garage band, jamming at home for kicks before it actually started to play out in 1982. The group eventually played in cities all over the United States during the '80s and even traveled to Europe. The musicians parted ways in 1989.

The group was so adamant about the music thate the used instruments and equipment from the time period. They would run old Vox and Rickenbacker guitars through Vox amps.
