The Rockin' Bones

Paul Cleary (Acoustic Bass), Eddie Day (Lead Vocals), Bruce Katsu (Electric Guitar/Backing Vocals), and Ben Pape (Acoustic Guitar/Backing Vocals) are collectively known as The Rockin' Bones. With extensive backgrounds and musical careers that span the past twenty years, the group came together in 1993 out of their mutual love of roots rockabilly. They have played at well-known venues including Tornado Alley, Twist and Shout and Phantasmagoria in Maryland; the Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo Park; the Rodeo Bar and Coney Island High in New York City; and diverse juke joints from the Dixie Grill in Washington to the Cafe Tattoo in Baltimore. They have also played benefits such as the Kids' Computer Workshop, the AIDS Walk in Frederick, Maryland, the Baltimore Blues Festival and Baltimore's "Night of 100 Elvis," where they have been featured in the "Jungle Room." .
