Description
McCurdy was influenced at an early age by the first appearance of The Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show . After teaching himself guitar and participating in several high school bands, he went on to front Yipes! in the late 1970s, formed with fellow University of Wisconsin students. Often described as a power pop or new wave band, Yipes! enjoyed some moderate success after being signed to RCA/Millennium in 1978. However, the label dropped the band after only a few years
