Eddie Rockit’s Rubber Band

Previously Unrecorded Music from Ed Nawrocki

About Me


Hello, I am Ed Nawrocki a.k.a. Eddie Rockit.
At this writing the RUBBERBAND BAND is finishing up tracks for the new cd which is scheduled to drop in September.
"Mr. Ants In My Pants", I couldn't wait that long for you to hear what we've been working on so I've BOOTLEGGED some pre-release unfinished tracks for you to get a taste.
Don't forget to rate the songs so I can get a feel if you dig my stuff or not.
In 1996 with the break-up of JUSTICE GREEDY , I decided to retire as a performer and give up a life long dream to achieve success as a songwriter and musical artist.
Due to the passing of TJ and Tom and the encouragement of many people especially, Eric Brown and John Hartje, I find myself once again writing and recording.
Over the next year I will continue uploading new BOOTLEG tracks of previously unrecorded and new material of mine and my current collaborators and musical instigators.
To start off with here are the rough solo versions of Rubber Room and Stown Away. Eric Brown joins me playing drums on Stown Away.
The next 4 songs have Eric and I on them plus Danny Golubic on Bass and George Stachnik doing some vocals and Blues Harp work. These songs are far from done. I am only posting them so the few fans I have can see where I am going with these tunes.
Within another month or two we will have completed tracks with the whole ensemble.
If you would like to become part of my recording ensemble or if you wish to License these songs, please contact me.
There are another 16 or so songs in the works and a second CD will follow in another 6 months. I will be releasing rough preview tracks as they become available.
I hope you enjoy this music as much as we did recording it.
In the meantime enjoy these songs, comment and rate them and just let me know what you think or if you wish to be part of the ensemble.
I also would like to invite you to visit my other myspace websites.

If you are an artist or band and would like help publishing or releasing your work please contact me.

If you are a musician , who finds any of the tunes that I will be previewing interesting, and would like to become involved in my current projects please message me.

I am interested in finding: a second guitarist to trade off rhythm and lead parts, a keyboardist, string instrument players, horns, reeds and other interesting musical sound makers.

If when listening to these tunes you can hear your part, let's put it in.

If you are a band and would like to record your own rendition of these songs, contact me for rights.

Influences: Over 40 years as a musician and songwriter, it is difficult for me to list all the influences I've had. My roots are in classic hard rock but I enjoY blues, jazz, metal, reggae, punk, funk and all kinds of junk.

All music created influences THE RUBBERBAND BAND
Sounds Like: This is again tough to say. The first tune I'll be sharing is an airy psychedelic mellow tune but my writing, like my influences, is all over the place.

Some have labled my newer tunes as hard rock folk. One dude even called me the new alternative Johhny Cash. Others have called my stuff complete trash so we'll see what you all thing once I start uploading new material.
Record Label: Brown Town Records
Type of Label: Indie
