Background
In 1996, Douglas and Darren Elder founded The Kingpin Wrecking Crew. With Doug on lead vocals and guitar and Darren on drums, joined by Karl Anderson on keyboards/synths/organ, Ty Monroe on bass guitar and Joe McCann(aka DJ McCannical) on turntables, the band achieved a unique sound of funk rock blended with hip hop and various other styles. After a few years in the band, Monroe parted ways to move south for ministry work. Anderson resumed bass duties. Around the mid-2000's, the band changed their name to The Wrecking. Soon after this, McCann left the group. The band announced their breakup in 2013.
