Roxx Gang
Roxx Gang was an American glam-metal band formed in 1982 in St. Petersburg, Florida. Auditions and rehearsals were held at Rockin' Studio 66, a local rehearsal/recording studio owned by area musician, Mike Abdishi. It was fronted by Kevin Steele, who formed the band along with guitarist Eric Carrell.
==History==
The band garnered record company attention in 1987 with its ''Love 'Em and Leave 'Em'' demo. The band recorded its debut album ''Things You've Never Done Before'' (1988) on Virgin Records from which it released two singles "No Easy Way Out" and "Scratch My Back" with the lineup now consisting of Steele, Jeff Taylor Blanchard (guitar), Wade Hayes (guitar), Roby "Strychnine" Strine (bass), and David James Blackshire (drums). It was produced by Beau Hill and went on to sell a quarter million copies worldwide.
This version of the band broke up in 1991 because of infighting and record company issues. Steele then formed a new version of the band along with Roby Strine, guitarist Dallas Perkins and professional session/touring drummer Andy James from NYC. Years later drummer Tommy Weder and guitarist Stacey Blades replaced James and Perkins. Strine left in 1994 and was replaced by Dorian Sage. The band released the album ''The Voodoo You Love'', its first album since Things You've Never Done Before, and went on to release several more albums in the late 1990s. The band added guitarist Jeff Vitolo and bassist Vinnie Granese replaced Sage. Soon after Roxx Gang created a blues/rock alter-ego The Mojo Gurus. Blades left citing "musical differences" after which evolution into The Mojo Gurus became permanent.
In 2006, two of its songs off of the ''Things You've Never Done Before'' album, "Ball 'N Chain" and "No Easy Way Out" were featured in the THQ action-adventury video game ''Saints Row''.〔("Saints Row Delivers a Sonic Blitz Complete In-Game Track Listing Revealed" ).
