Artist History
White Knuckle Ride is a 7 piece rock band with all the right ingredients: a pinch of southern slide, a scoop of fat back bass, a twist of bluegrass banjo and a slap of good ol' rock & roll. Dzielak having spent time in both Los Angeles and New York City was frustrated with joining bands. As a guitar player for Dogma,(a hard rock band from NY signed to King/Mercury records), Dzielak recorded two albums with the band before he decided to quit and go his own way creatively. He was ready to branch off into a different style of music after purchasing a banjo, lap steel and experimenting with vocal harmonies. Dzielak having written, recorded and played the demo by himself decided he wanted a band that didn't srimp on instruments. It was now time to contact some good ol' boys from and around the PA area including Big Leo Shotz(played sax for Chubby Checker), Armond Sposto(Bassist from Bliss)a local hero on the scene. brother Ed Dzielak(drummer from Stottles Rockets), Kevin Conway on percussion and Merle Hatchet on banjo, guitar. "IT ROCKS BALLS" describes Dzielak so check em' out live in and around NY, NJ,and PA there HOT AS TITS. |
