Biography
Martini Ranch was an American synth-pop band conceived in 1982 by Andrew Todd Rosenthal. The band originally featured Rosenthal, Cliff Roman, and Steven William "Billy Bones" Fortuna. The later lineup was composed of Rosenthal (vocals and guitar) and actor Bill Paxton (voices and samples), and featured a similar sound to late 1980s Devo. The Martini Ranch track "How Can the Labouring Man Find Time for Self-Culture?" featured three members of Devo. In 1988, Martini Ranch was featured in the opening title track of the film You Can't Hurry Love directed by Richard Martini (no relation). In 1989, Martini Ranch was featured in the end credits of Bill Paxton's cult movie Brain Dead. Rosenthal later formed a new band called Swifty's Bazaar.
