Dean played guitar on all of Tomorrows Gone's releases and temporarily played bass for the band's live shows in 1995. In 1996, Dean moved from Las Vegas to Detroit, while Tomorrows Gone vocalist Lance Wells moved to California. Despite the distance, Dean remained with the band until their breakup in 1997.

Current members include Jeff Dean, Sensitive Pete (The Methadones, Naked Raygun) and Mike Soucy (The Methadones, Dan Vapid and the Cheats).
