Dare Force released three albums in the 1980s and performed in concert with numerous national acts such as KISS, Ted Nugent, Triumph, Kansas, UFO, the Joe Perry Project, and Ratt, as well as headlining in venues throughout the US, Canada, Puerto Rico, and Venezuela. Dare Force also had several songs that received heavy airplay on rock radio stations throughout the midwestern US in the 1980s. Dare Force released its third album, &#8220;Firepower,&#8221; with a reformed version of the band in 1989. The original lineup performed occasional reunion gigs after the long run of the original band ended in 1987, but the original version of Dare Force stopped performing live altogether after their last reunion show in 2002. Dare Force reformed yet again with a return to a four-piece lineup in 2017, and released its fourth album, \u201cCallin\u2019 Your Name,\u201d in 2018.<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA:<\/strong><\/u><br \/>\nWebsite: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.JohnnyONeil.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.JohnnyONeil.com<\/a><br \/>\nFB: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Facebook.com\/JohnnyONeilOfficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.Facebook.com\/JohnnyONeilOfficial<\/a><br \/>\nInstagram: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Instagram.com\/Johnny_ONeilOfficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.Instagram.com\/Johnny_ONeilOfficial<\/a><br \/>\nBandcamp: <a href=\"https:\/\/johnnyoneil.bandcamp.com\/releases\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/johnnyoneil.bandcamp.com\/releases<\/a><br \/>\nYouTube: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/JohnnyONeilOfficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/youtube.com\/JohnnyONeilOfficial<\/a><br \/>\nTwitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JohnnyONeil16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/JohnnyONeil16<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-28602\" src=\"http:\/\/michaelbrandvold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/oneil-pr-2023-01-31-03-1024x536.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"314\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For all inquiries, contact:<br \/>\nMICHAEL BRANDVOLD MARKETING &amp; MANAGEMENT<br \/>\nMichael Brandvold | me@mikebrandvold.com | 415-200-8483<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Michael Brandvold is a freelance music industry consultant based in Northern California.
