The Story

Styles & Storms are Robbie Styles and Emily Storms — a Detroit-based duo and real-life couple of 20+ years whose music sounds exactly like the crash of two worlds: the glam-soaked, mascara-streaked Hollywood underground and the gritty, hard-fisted rock tradition of Motor City.

Their sound is a modern collision of garage, glam, metal, and punk, shaped by decades of shared stage experience across the country's most storied clubs. It's loud, theatrical, and refuses to behave — celebrating their multiracial heritage and dual LA × Detroit roots without apology.

Their debut single, "Rumor" — a cover of the cult 1993 bubbleglam gem by Heart Throb Mob — drops June 8, 2026, featuring a surprise reunion with Eddie Electra, Robbie's former Peppermint Creeps bandmate, in their first public collaboration in over 15 years.

In less than a month of existence, Styles & Storms have amassed 1,000+ TikTok followers and 11,500+ likes, earned coverage in Junkyard Rock Stories, and appeared on the Tease the Nation podcast — with their first music video in production.

"RUMOR"

feat. Eddie Electra

Originally recorded by Heart Throb Mob in 1993, "Rumor" is a hidden gem of bubbleglam rock that most people never got to hear — until now. Styles & Storms bring it back with modern production and a unmistakable glam-punk edge.

The track marks something larger than a debut: it's the first time Robbie Styles and Eddie Electra have recorded together since the Peppermint Creeps' 2005 album, We R the Weirdoz. A reunion over a decade in the making, tucked inside a cover song.

The Heart Throb Mob connection runs deeper still — Heart Throb Mob was the former band of Traci Michaelz, the beloved creative genius behind Peppermint Creeps who passed in 2008. This recording carries that weight quietly, and with pride.
