\"Little<\/a>I am really excited to announce that Michael Brandvold Marketing will be working with former Geffen Recording artst Little Caesar<\/a>, the longhaired, tattooed bikers that sing soulful, yet ballsy, rock music.<\/p>\n

Little Caesar, featuring Ron Young (vocals), Jimmy Hayne aka. Apache (guitar), Loren Molinare (guitar), Fidel Paniagua (bass) and Tom Morris (drums), first appeared on Metal Blade\u2019s \u201cStreet Survivors\u201d compilation. The band then released a four song EP titled \u201cName Your Poison\u201d (produced by Joe Hardy of ZZ Top fame), which subsequently led to a deal with Geffen Records. Little Caesar\u2019s eponymous 1990 Geffen debut was produced by the infamous Bob Rock (producer of Metallica\u2019s self titled 1991 multi-platinum release, Motley Crue\u2019s \u201cDr. Feelgood\u201d, and The Cult\u2019s \u201cSonic Temple\u201d among others). The album was a no-nonsense collection of hard rock in the vein of 70\u2019s giants like Bad Company and Humble Pie, and was also brimming with classic R&B influences, garnering widespread acceptance and positive reviews from the rock media. It also featured two Motown covers, including a ballsy rendition of the classic Aretha Franklin track, \u201cChain of Fools,\u201d which hit the Billboard Top 100 chart and received strong airplay nationwide on both rock radio and MTV. The group toured extensively opening for such legendary acts as Jane\u2019s Addiction, KISS, Social Distortion, Iggy Pop, Billy Idol, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. They also headlined their own club tours, and appeared on TV\u2019s popular \u201cArsenio Hall Show\u201d, \u201cThe Rick Dees Show\u201d, and MTV\u2019S \u201cSex\u201d in the 90\u2019s.. Vocalist Ron Young was also featured in the movie \u201cTerminator 2\u201d as a tough talking biker that gets into a fight with the film\u2019s star, Arnold Schwarzenegger. 1992 would bring the second full-length album, \u201cInfluence\u201d, which would have Earl Slick (of John Lennon, David Bowie, and Ian Hunter fame) replacing Apache on guitar. The \u201cInfluence\u201d album was produced by the well respected, Howard Benson (who has recently produced releases for platinum artists like Daughtry, Papa Roach, and P.O.D. among others). The band completed its first tour of Europe after the release of the album and drew rave reviews and sold out crowds across multiple countries including a sold out headlining performance at the famous Marquee club in London.<\/p>\n

In 2010, Little Caesar moved forward with a vengeance on a worldwide level with new release titled “Redemption” as well as touring in the US, Europe and the UK. They also introduced new guitar player Joey Brasler (Etta James, Bob Welch, Cherie Currie) as welcome addition to their musical line up.<\/p>\n

In 2012, Little Caesar now releases their latest effort entitled “American Dream” on the Unison Music Group label. Produced by Bruce Witkin, it’s a powerful, no nonsense, guitar driven group of songs, that takes the band to that same warm R&B driven Rock and Roll Universe they call home. They embark on a tour of Spain, Germany, Switzerland and Belgium mid June and will be performing at the Hard Rock Hell festival in Wales in Dec 2012.<\/p>\n
