Those Guys

With an astonishing fusion of classic blues, modern rock and roll, and classic rock, sprinkled over a lifetime of friendship among band members, Those Guys has one of the heartiest and heaviest sounds around. Founding member Walt Kulwicki, on guitar and leading vocals, lights the fuse to the energetic riot that is Those Guys. The band remains unmatched in their longevity, one of the first groups to be inducted into The St. Augustine Music Hall of Fame in 2018. Their body of work includes five studio albums, and three live CDs, one of them a live production recorded on the historic strip of Highway A1A.

Originally formed in 1992, Those Guys was the brainchild of co-songwriter and guitarist Walt Kulwicki. The band originally formed as a duo when Kulwicki convinced lead vocalist Chris McVey, who was part of the band for almost three decades, to move to Florida after being in New York for several years. As the duo gained traction, they transformed into a full-band sound. Current members in early 2026 also include Tommy Gilstrap on vocals and bass guitar, Derek Hess on drums and vocals, and Jimmy Sexton on guitars and vocals, rounding out the band's distinct and dynamic sound. The ensemble remains unmatched in execution, with 34 years of musical history together.
