JOHNNY opened for Y&T, Black N’ Blue, and Humble Pie, and headlined at venues all over the San Francisco area. JOHNNY was formed by ex members of ”Bennie And The Jets” (featured at 0dayrox) vocalist Ben LaBarge and bass player Keith Bellino, and alongside De La Rosa included drummer Rich Carlson, who later joined Paul Shortino in his band “Badd Boyz”. Biff Byford, Phil Campbell & Duff McKagan)įollow Girlschool: /GirlschoolOfficial – /GirlschoolReal – /girlschoolreal/ – – /girlschool – Blue Records is bringing to life the previously unreleased material of American melodic hard rockers JOHNNY, featuring excellent guitarist Danny De La Rosa before he joined BABYLON A.D. WTFortyfive? is out now on 12” Vinyl, CD Digipak, Digital Download and Streaming and Special D2C bundles. And if THAT isn’t enough, their raunch roars and rolls alongside Biff Byford (Saxon), Phil Campbell (Motörhead) and Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses) on a cracking cover of ‘Born To Raise Hell’! So throw away your inhibitions and join these spectacularly wild women on the most glorious of rock ‘n’ roll rides. Lead single ‘Are You Ready?’ sets the pace, a racy, raunchy, fun-saturated shape-shifter co-written with Alcatrazz’s Joe Stump that shows Girlschool’s leathers may still carry the well-baked battle scars of decades gone by, but their songs and attitude are as fresh, fun, heavy and catchy as ever before. There’s the addictive mototörcharged scuzz of ‘It Is What It Is’, the Wandsworth via Sunset Strip sway of ‘Bump In The Night‘, the youthful, punky romp of ‘Up To No Good’ and the smart, sassy, rock ‘n’ roll hooks of ‘Believing In You’, with McAuliffe’s vocals sounding as sharp and raucous as ever. With WTFortyfive?, Kim McAuliffe (guitar/vocals), Denise Dufort (drums), Jackie Chambers (guitar/backing vocals) and Tracey Lamb (bass) leave the grit under their finger nails and the scuzz on their crusty leather boots as they riff and stomp their way through 12 statements of intent showing major attitude, some great melodies, and a consistent crunch to every guitar. WTFortyfive? is Girlschool’s 14th studio album and is a deliciously dirty declaration that age is a number that shows how much real raw attitude you have when it really counts.
