 LITTLE CAESAR

stormed a packed House of Blues, Hollywood on 4.1.14 

as warm up for their April 2014 tour of the U.K. and a return to the continent for a European tour this coming August and September.

 

New boy Joey (from Babybird and Johnny Depp's bands from the 1980s through today, also a member of singer Ron's other group the Blue-Eyed Devils (LINK and LINK) on guitar alongside Loren fit right into the camaraderie of this band which considers individuality of its players one of their primary strengths; i.e., this hardest rock/blues/soul band's drummer Tom sports Mott the Hoople and other glam icon t-shirts along with one that reads Gram Parsons and the Fallen Angels Tour (!) while guitarist Loren remains a member of legendary Detroit/L.A. power trio THE DOGS (see LINK,) stylistically borne from the era of their contemporaries for whom they opened, The Stooges and MC5.

Little Caesar are: Ron Young, lead vocals; Tom Morris, drums; Fidel Paniaqua, bass, vocals; Loren Molinare, guitar, vocals; Joey Malone, guitar, vocals.

The House of Blues remains known for its outrageous outsider, primitive and third world art within its warren of rooms, and all eyes were on Lynn Carey, above left (see LINK .) Singer Lynn, formerly of notorious '70s blues rockers Mama Lion, then finds consolation with Renee Hill Young, spouse of singer Ron, in the band dressing room.
