Andy Timmons (Danger Danger)

Andy Timmons (b. Evansville, July 26, 1963 - ) – Guitarist. An Evansville native, guitarist Andy Timmons has played behind many stars including Ted Nugent, Paul Stanley, Paula Abdul, Olivia Newton John, and the Beach Boys. In 1989, he joined the glam-rock group Danger Danger shortly before its first album was issued. After charting a couples songs—including “Naughty Naughty” from MTV’s “Head Bangers Ball”—the band faced personnel and management problems in the production of the third album, which was ultimately dropped. In the midst of such dissension, Timmons, who had already established himself as a rock guitar hero, left the group to pursue a solo career. From 1994 to 2006, he also released seven solo albums and one album as the Andy Timmons Band in 1989.
