Only a couple months into their coupledom, Major Matt Mason USA and Nan Turner began jamming. Nan's prior music experience was playing guitar and sometimes bass in the all-girl punky pop band Bionic Finger. Matt's experience included playing guitar in noisepop bands in Kansas, but he was mainly doing solo acoustic shows in New York when he met Nan. In the honeymoon of their romance, Matt brought his electric guitar out of hibernation and Nan started banging the drums. Schwervon! was born.
