Artist History BALLROOM was formed in the early 90's by a bunch of guys who had moved to Hollywood, CA from from Charlotte, NC. They quickly gained a reputation as a "must see" band in the underground club scene. Before they could hit paydirt, a car crash caused one of the band members to return home. Unable to recover from this tragedy, BALLROOM soon disbanded. Now, after a long hiatus and back in their hometown, these rockers are ready to jump back into the fray. Order a DAM CD today...
