History
Formed in 1998 by vocalist/bassist Danny Nordahl and lead guitarist Marc Diamond after the breakup of their former band New York Loose, Motochrist originally existed primarily as a ploy to get free drinks from various local establishments in the Los Angeles area but soon blossomed into the area's premiere hard rock band. Soon joined by guitarist Ricky Vodka (brother of Kottonmouth Kings drummer Lou Vodka) and rounded out by journeyman drummer Chad Stewart, Motochrist released their debut disc 666-Pack in early 2000 to rave reviews from both domestic and foreign press. Followed by 2003's Greetings From The Bonneville Salt Flats and the live album Hollywood High in 2006, Motochrist's latest release , 2010's Corvette Summer , continues their tradition of brilliant hard rock with their style of tongue placed firmly in cheek lyricism. The members of Motochrist have also remained busy lending their talents to a plethora of other artists including The Dwarves, Kottonmouth Kings, Mondo Generator, Texas Terri, Ayumi Hamasaki, Gage, Faster Pussycat and many more.

Following
The band has remained largely underground, but has gaining a large cult following in the rock club scene, and in Europe, Australia, Japan, and the rest of the world. Motochrist's music has been featured in both film and TV including MTV's Rob Drydreck's Fantasy Factory and the WB Network's Heebee Geebees.
