Code 22 was formed in 2011 by Chris McKinnis and Wesley Powell, who had played together off and on since high school on the mean streets of Enid. Code 22 came out strong in the pop punk scene in OKC. After releasing their first self-titled album and playing various shows around OKC, Code 22 started undergoing lineup changes in order to get the right fit and the right sound. While waiting to complete the lineup, Chris was busy writing new catchy riffs with a twist of nerd rock. Realizing everyone shared an interest in nerdy pop culture, the band composed some popular cover tracks like TMNT, X-Men, and Star Wars which are on our album Nerdgasm Vol.1. The band has had the opportunity to play with some of their favorite bands such as Chunk! No, Captain Chunk, City Lights, and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, just to name a few, but as life happens, members have moved on to pursue different goals.
