The Mansfields formed in Colorado Springs, CO in 1995 but Dave, Doug and Tommy, all of which adopted the Last name MANSFIELD as a salute to their favorite B-Movie actress JAYNE MANSFIELD, have been together since they were in their mid-teens.

Eventually learning to play their instruments together without any real help or God forbid, music lessons, the guys spent many a day making noise in Dave and Doug's garage and dreaming of just making it to a stage somewhere anywhere. Recognizing early on that being visually entertaining was just as important to them as sounding good, it didn?t take long for THE MANSFIELDS to find their niche by blending Short, Fast Punk Rock songs with the Glam/ Punk look and a theatrical live show. The kind of show that most Punk bands are not noted for having. Idolizing Joan Jett and The Runaways, Doug brought to the band a wall of Distortion in his guitar sound and all of a sudden they were writing catchy 3-chord songs like the Ramones and Blondie songs they had been listening to.
