The Swinging Machine was a 1960s garage punk band from Portsmouth, VA, United States. The precursor to The Swinging Machine (The Chevelles) was formed in 1963 by high school friends. The band’s first paid performance was a dance at Willard Junior High School, Norfolk. The band met with little success, but three members Evan Pierce, Jr (lead guitar), Richard (Dick) H. Bocock (drums), and W. Steven (Steve) Curling (saxophone) didn’t let that stop them.
