Within a year Dave had assembled a high energy band consisting of vocalist Bobby "Rocker" Fredericks, bassist Jason Carter, and drummer Mike "Oxbig" Fittos. This lineup played live extensively and subsequently recorded their debut cd Blows U Away in 1996, which has since sold internationally as well as received airplay throughout the world on terrestrial and Internet radio. Wilkes Booth
have been unrelenting in their passion for a classic hard rock
sound. They have ignored trends in favor of playing firey covers
from such artists as Aerosmith, Black Sabbath and Metallica to
Motley Crue, Poison and Van Halen to name a few. The Wilkes Booth
original material is written and played in the same passionate
vein as well. The second
cd release from Wilkes Booth entitled Wilkes Booth
is truly one of the last over the top dirty rock and roll bands
from back in the day. While the band has persevered thru numerous
losses, personnel changes, and unfavorable experiences, one cannot
afford to take their eyes off of them for a single moment, for
fear of missing something outrageous. The current lineup is back
in the studio, finishing their third cd entitled Just For
You and getting ready to embark on a massive promotional
campaign.
