Rocko and the Devils is a rock and roll band. It is a group of five musicians of various levels of talent and diverse musical influence dedicated to the idea that musical performance is the greatest thing in the universe. So much so, that each of the members, in one form or another, has dedicated their entire life to music. Work hard to play hard is more than a concept for these guys. It is the basis of their careers.
These guys are the best of the best at what they do, known throughout the world for their expertise in musical production. Collectively, they have over 150 years of experience both performing and producing rock and roll shows.
Rocko is one of the most experienced of all the road crew people in the world. He has been around. If you don’t know, or at least have heard of Rocko, you are pretty much new to the music business. He has played in rock bands since 1966. That’s right - 40 years ago! Rocko first started working professionally with major player “rock stars” In 1974 - when he would buy-repair-sell guitars to some of the biggest names in show biz at that time. Zeppelin, Bad Company, Kansas, Genesis, Humble Pie, Rod Stewart, Jeff Beck…. The list is long and the clients are well respected. Rocko was the go-to guy for cool vintage guitars.
Then Rocko went on to touring work for some of the biggest and most successful artists of our time. Styx, Muddy Waters, Robin Trower, Survivor, Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Mellencamp, J. Geils Band, KISS, The Scorpions, Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson,and of course U2, just to name a few. Thirty-two years of touring setting up over 6,000 shows …and still counting.
The band recently opened for U2 in the Aloha Stadium, Honolulu, Hawaii.
