When Paul DiBartolo (guitar) Rob De Luca (bass) and Tommi Gallo (drums) moved to the City and met up with vocalist Ray West, a new attitude was instantly born. While rehearsing/writing in a dingy East Village basement for their first gig, rumours began leaking out to the record industry. The group was quickly snatched up and signed to MCA/Universal, then sent straight into the studio. Additional tunes for the debut album had to be written while recording was taking place. The self-titled debut was produced by Charlie Gambetta and featured wailing vocals and razor sharp guitar, demonstrated through songs such as "Switchblade Serenade", "Scratch Like A Cat", and "Broken City". The honesty of Spread Eagle’s debut release quickly gained the band worldwide critical acclaim and propelled them to the forefront of the genre. Four years later, after the release and touring of their second album "Open To The Public" (also produced by Gambetta), the band took a break and went about their own personal projects. Lovember records has reissued their remastered debut "SPREAD EAGLE" record in association with Universal Music in August of 2006. Ray West has been locked up in a studio in New Jersey creating and producing powerful new music. He spent some time honing his skills with his solo band The Ray West Band. Ray is currently fronting his new project HOSTEL INC., which features Dennis K. on guitars, Chigger on bass, and Jeff H. on drums. Look for some new music from HOSTEL INC. soon on myspace.com/hostelinc "VOICES" LIVE FROM THE RAY WEST BAND TOUR 2007: |
