About The Nite Walkers

The band was formed in 1964. Members were Richard Hernandez (bass), Ray Almonza (rhythm guitar), Joe Stoddard (lead guitar), and Robert Stoddard (drums). They were indeed from Bell Gardens and all songs on their cut two 45s are originals. What made this band unique at the time was their ages. Robert was 12 and the other three were 13. They played mostly for school assemblies, grand openings of businesses, weddings. They used to play at a place in Hollywood called Pandora's Box on Sunset and La Brea. Made a TV commercial in a topless bar. Came in 2nd place in the famous "Countdown '65" battle of the bands at the Olympic Auditorium which was televised. Joe stayed in music and is still performing.
