Artist History in 1999, alex and sergio formed a band called incognito and played with various drummers. they had a couple of performances, but the band didn't seem to be going anywhere. convinced that the problem lied in the band's name which happened to already be taken by two other bands, alex and sergio tried to think of a new name for the band. alex always liked the name johnny 5 from the movie "short circuit", and sergio agreed on the name. they then tried to find a new drummer and came accross trevor. they asked him to join the band, and the songs finally clicked. the band played its first show under its new name on december 8th, at moorpark high school.
