Sounds Like

I listened to your myspace page and was really impressed. The guitar work is incredible that has thrash elements of early Metallica to Eddie Vedder solos, lead patterns, and runs. The mixture of AC/DC combined with Sex Pistols 'fuck it all' attitude with Elvis Presley and Bruce Springsteen like vocals is a refreshing sound that has not been done ever before. I was really impressed with the overall depth and range your four songs posted. They can be rocking yet country yet punk and still have your personality.
~T.Bain RCA Music Group / SONYBMG NYC. (Dec 20th 2007)

The guitars on David LaDuke's 'Psychedelic Sandwich' are absolutely rocking as he pulls out a cool mix of sleazy metal iintertwined with traditional rock that would make for some great strip bar music. He chimes in again on BALL 1 with 'Rockin N Ready' , a track that showcases his soulful and original vocal delivery over a backdrop of music similar to KIX or Autograph.

   About David La Duke
Ball-Bustin' guitar rocker David La Duke is one of those characters that is more than just a musician and writer, but a player in the rock 'n' roll mythology.

Creator, composer, writer, editor. there's little he hasn't seen or done over the years and his involvement in the cause for bringing those sounds from the underground the much needed exposure it so richly deserves, is one of unyielding proportions.

David La Duke: The man behind SB Productions and the world renowned Ball Buster Hard MUSIC Report is a rocker in his own right & has rocked with the best of them.

La Duke, the hard-rockin' Kentucky-based vocalist, guitarist, songwriter and producer mixes a unique style of traditional hard rock and blues compared to a hybrid of fascinating musicians that runs the gamut from The Clash to Jimmy Page to Elvis!

You can't help but soak up his love for the big guitars, roaring hook and all things unabashedly pro-air guitar. Less a metal shredder and more of a Detroit style rumble rocker (though he's from Kentucky!), La Duke takes on guitar and vocal duties with full on adrenaline rooted in rock 'n' roll's origins.
