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.

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.

David LaDuke! How about if "Richie Blackmore" & "Jimmy Page" both have
lost a few fingers & were forced to play solo? David LaDuke!" ~Cseloteiv

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.
