Just Push Play - A Music Podcast: Interview with Spread Eagle
Join Sherry for Just Push Play - A Music Podcast: Interview with Ray West and Rob DeLuca from Spread Eagle
Spread Eagle burst upon the hard rock scene of the late ‘80s/early ‘90s playing a brand of rock that hailed straight from the mean streets of New York City. When Paul DiBartolo (guitar), Rob De Luca (bass), and Tommi Gallo (drums) moved to New York City and met up with Ray West (vocals), East Coast Streetmetal was born. The group was quickly snatched up and signed to MCA/Universal Records, then sent straight into the legendary Record Plant studios to record their debut album. The self-titled debut was produced by Charlie Gambetta and featured a gritty and dangerous sound, wailing vocals and razor sharp guitar, demonstrated through songs such as "Switchblade Serenade", "Scratch Like A Cat", and "Broken City".
After the release and touring of their second album, "Open To The Public", the band took an exteneded break and went about their own personal projects.
Spread Eagle reformed in 2006 under the direction of Ray West and Rob DeLuca (who has also worked with UFO and Sebastian Bach). Since 2012, the current line-up of West and DeLuca was solidified with Ziv Shalev (guitar) and Rik De Luca (drums). The band has been together ever since and finally decided to start production on a new album, that was released on August 9, 2019 on Frontiers SRL called Subway To The Stars. Recording took place at Studio E in Brooklyn, NY with Grammy Award winning engineer Tom Camuso. The new album does not disappoint and picks off up where the band left off. They are yet another vital band from the '80s/'90s rock scene to release amazing new music in the 21st century!
