Too Rockin' For Their Own Good

About Me

Debra Dynamite is now rockin' out with her band Debra Dynamite and the Torpedos. So far, it has been an exciting trip! We have done some killer gigs, including our show opening up for Sean Mencher Combo in NYC at the Rodeo Bar. This was an amazing experience! We will be appearing there again with Sean in November, and we are hot and excited for that show! We also had the terrific opportunity to open for guitar legend Dick Dale in Asbury Park at the Asbury Lanes! Rockin' Daddy-O and Debra Dynamite had a fun night in Asbury running our own record hop with (Yours truly) along with the Blue Suede Bombers! What a blast! Things are moving right along for us, as we are looking forward to doing another show with the one and only Big Sandy with Los Straitjackets at the end of August! Debra Dynamite and the Torpedos will be working on a CD coming soon--we will keep you posted! Rockin'Daddy-O is always hard at work spinnin' killer wax around NYC and the Jersey Shore and branching out all the time! Thanks to our friend Gem for having us at Kenny's Castaways in NYC--what a night we had! Check out ROCKIN' DADDY-O'S ROCKABILLY RANCH PARTY now heard on www.rockitradio.netNow, a word of advice!
