Thunderhead (5)

Based in New Orleans, Thunderhead was formed in 1973 by members of local cover bands Paper Steamboard (singer Mike Daggar, guitarist Ronnie Dobbs, and bassist Otho T. Ware) and David and the Giants drummer Bobby Torello. Local guitarist Pat Rush was subsequently added to the lineup and after a couple of weeks of rehearsals the group began touring clubs throughout the Southeast.
In 2009 Bobby T and Mike Dagger reformed Thunderhead. With new members enlisted the band began a steady and careful rehearsal schedule to make sure the sound was replicated to what the band had originally stood for.
