About

Tiger Army played their first show at seminal California DIY venue 924 Gilman in 1996. A trio with guitar, stand-up bass & drums led by singer, guitarist & songwriter Nick 13, the band’s sound is a unique blend of punk and Midcentury rock 'n' roll, emphasizing songwriting and melody. 

Four albums were released on Hellcat/Epitaph, starting with their self-titled debut in 1999. Heavy touring continued through the end of 2008, when they wrapped the cycle for ‘Music From Regions Beyond’, produced by the legendary Jerry Finn. The album yielded the single “Forever Fades Away” and their highest visibility with favorable reviews in the ‘New York Times’ & a national TV appearance on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’, yet they’ve always been outsiders to the mainstream, authenticity never compromised.

Nick 13 switched gears to play Americana music solo, releasing & touring a self-titled album on Sugar Hill Records in 2011. Tiger Army continued in a limited capacity, still playing ‘Octoberflame’, a multi-night SoCal festival curated by 13 (which had its tenth installment in 2019 with 2 sold out shows at The Wiltern in Los Angeles) and known for the band’s different setlists each night featuring deep cuts, surprise covers & guest musicians.

The band returned to full-time status in 2015 with the recording of 'V •••–' (their fifth album), released the following spring on Lunatone/Rise & supported with extensive touring over four continents that lasted into late 2017. 2018 saw the release of the tiki/surf themed 'Dark Paradise' EP. 2019 was marked by the creation & release of 'Retrofuture', their sixth full length LP – they managed to tour in North America, Germany & the UK before the pandemic struck.

Tiger Army is known for its passionately devoted fanbase, with thousands sporting tattoos of lyrics, song titles, or the band’s signature “TigerBat” logo. Any set is a journey that takes the audience from romantic ballads like “Dark and Lonely Night” or the Rock en español “Mi Amor La Luna”, to high energy stompers like “F.T.W.”.

They celebrate their 25th anniversary in 2021, come see what’s led to the longevity for yourself at a live show when you can!

    Tiger Army always puts on a great show!

    by Muertita on 2/11/17Teragram Ballroom - Los Angeles

    The show was truly amazing. Nick 13 never disappoints with that gorgeous voice that makes you want to melt. He truly is a beautiful man with a beautiful soul. The venue was small and intimate which I love but it was ridiculously hot in there and this was on a cool winter night so I don't even want to imagine how hot it would get in there on a hot summer day or night. Other then that the show was great.

    Amazing!

    by rockabillygirl on 4/28/16House of Blues Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    Tiger Army did not disappoint. Nick 13 gave the same level of performance that I have come to expect over the last 10+ years of seeing him perform live. Looking forward to the new album and hopefully an album tour

    Sound quality was abysmal

    by spunx82 on 3/15/16The Stone Pony - Asbury Park

    Tiger army was amazing as usual. The new bassist and drummer were great. However the sound quality for the show was the worst I have ever experienced. There was something wrong with the way the bass was amplified and all the audience could hear from the bass could only be described as two coconuts being knocked together. I was very disappointed especially because the other two opening bands did not have this problem.

    Absolutely amazing. I've seen Tiger Army before. First time seeing Hard Fall Hearts, I feel in love with them on their first song they played. I can't wait till the next time Tiger Army plays again.

    Tiger Army !Never Die!

    by LaceSwitchBlade on 10/29/13City National Grove of Anaheim - Anaheim

    This event was awesome! Tiger Army rocked it with the classics of course. Nicks voice, Geoff slapping the bass and the amazing drummer... wow! I've seen them many times before and they have a way of bringing people together . The best part of the night was when Nick 13 came out to meet n greet his fans taking his time and really being appreciative. I've been a fan since the start and it was unforgetable.

    Tiger Army was glorious!

    by SinfulDeVille on 4/1/13House of Blues San Diego - San Diego

    The bartender at House of blues started us off right with excellent service and was super personable (unlike the Vegas HOB) The line up was amazing with Stellar Corpses opening up followed by Old Man Markley both of which I've seen before and never let me down for great music and show. Tiger Army came on stage and were stupendous as usual! I would definitely recommend seeing all of these bands.
