Nuzzle was a Santa Cruz and Los Angeles based emo rock band that existed between 1992 and 2001. The band called Santa Cruz their home between 1993 and 1999. Members were Nate Dalton (guitar), Andrew Dalton (vox), Ricardo Reano (drums), and Sam Fabela (bass). They played in Big Bang 2000. Nuzzle got their start in the city of Rosemead, California, just outside of Los Angeles. In the mid-90s brothers Nate and Andrew Dalton moved to Santa Cruz to attend college, and Ricardo and Sam soon followed. Nuzzle performed at the first Yo-Yo A Go-Go Festival in Olympia, Washington in 1994.
