"ROCKGLAMPUNK N ROLL FROM DC"

About Me

... The Saviours are a Washington DC/Baltimore band that takes its inspiration from the rock and roll delivered by the Stooges, Johnny Thunders, Ramones, Cheap Trick, etc. The Saviours' history can be traced back to Beauty Queen Killers and Forbidden Planet. Dave, Jim & Stikky were all in both bands. The main difference between The Saviours and Beauty Queen Killers/Forbidden Planet being Dave took over the vocals and Anke was added on bass........................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ..................................We are very proud to announce the addition of Benjamin Iris on bass....kudos to anke for her stint with the Saviours...! we will be recording soon, so we'll keep you posted....... ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ....................................
