The Chop Tops
Chop Tops is a rockabilly trio composed of Gary "Sinner" Marsh (vocals), Shelby Legnon (guitar), and Hotrod (bass). They've been honing their savvy rock style since the mid-'90s, building momentum in and around their SoCal groundings. Debut album Tales of Hot Rods, Hot Broads and Lucky Odds was issued on Swillbilly in 1999. Always Wild appeared a year later on Rolling Rock, but it was the blistering set on Evil Six that caught the attention of Brian Setzer. Impressed by their third album, Setzer included the Chop Tops on his '68 Comeback Special in August 2001.
Danny B Harvey
DANIEL BRYAN HARVEY a.k.a. DANNY B. HARVEY was born in Killeen, Texas and at the age of 6 moved to Catlettsburg, KY. where he first picked up and started playing the guitar. At the age of 15 after moving to Canyon Country, CA. he was fortunate enough to receive his first formal lessons with the great JOE PASS. Up until then he had learned to play by only watching older country guitarists back in Ashland, KY and Huntington WV, falling in love with the guitar style of fellow Kentuckian MERLE TRAVIS. At seventeen he was accepted to USC on a full scholarship to study classical guitar with PEPE ROMERO. Feeling out of place (after all he had only moved away for rural KY. two years earlier) and anxious to make a name for himself he moved to England with LEVI DEXTER after only years of study. Danny soon developed a finger picking guitar style that is very unique and based on his idol MERLE TRAVIS, CHET ATKINS, JOE PASS and his classical-technic he learned at USC.
As a guitarist, producer and composer Danny has played and recorded with such great artists as Levi Dexter, Tim Polecat, Johnny Ramone, Nancy Sinatra, Lemmy Kilmister, Lee Rocker, Slim Jim Phantom and Wanda Jackson
In recent years he has have been performing and recording with the very talented singer Lynda Kay Parker as 1/2 of the Duo called THE LONESOME SPURS. Their first CD was released in the fall of 2006 on Cleopatra records to critical acclaim.
He is also well known as a founding member of the "take no Prisoners" rock'n'roll trio THE HEAD CAT. A band he started in 2001 with Lemmy Kilmister from Motorhead and Slim Jim Phantom from the Stray Cats.

Radio Threat
Members of Radio Threat have been playing in the Oxnard/ Ventura music scene for 15 years in bands such as Confessions of a Monster, The Pretty Uglys, Disfunction, and The Riverbottom Nightmare Band..to name a few. Our current lineup of Favio, Johnny, Bobby and Este has only one focus..Rock and Roll music, and playing live. Influenced by everything from Hank Williams to the Dwarves..Ritchie Valens to the Ramones..our sound can't be confined into one genre, and our live show can't be described as anything other than a full tilt rock and roll party. We won't dissapoint, and we can't be denied....WFRT
