"Bounty Hunter™-- The First and Still Kickin'." From South Carolina. Bounty Hunter's reputation throughout the southeast region of the United States is "legendary."* [1] Mining conceptual rock in their own music into new minerals sans over-homage-onization, Bounty Hunter's underlying message is "We are in this together; that is how we got here. But wait... there's more!" Unconventionally defiant of papa rock -isms at their core, Bounty Hunter flat-out kicks tail with soulful singing, bass that treads rock like a Phil Lynott battle tank, rock-steady dynamic drumming, and their calling-card Git!-tar shreds, the band revels in unified glory with seemingly telepathic live performances. Looking toward the stage, you are looking at the by-product of dues amply paid--and still being paid. Get this rare commodity while you can. * [1] Quote citation: 2007 radio promotion by Jeff T-Bone Taylor for Bounty Hunter (a sold-out SRO opening act set) for Brian Howe; Monkee Business, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, USA; Program Director and Radio Personality, Clear Channel Radio BIG-FM. Bounty Hunter's rock star bonafides are a view-from-the-top footnote to a working man's outlook on a music career based on respecting the unwritten contract of the stage between performer and audience. And while the band delivers on its expected homage to their touring roots, Bounty Hunter is to underground southern reinvention as Molly Hatchet was to the heyday of international southern metal. It must be said that despite the trappings of rock, they are humble yet resolute in doing things on their own terms. "We ride in from the shadows, play our music, then ride out into the darkness" says co-founding bandmember Ronnie Able. If not for their dogged persistence, undeniable talent, a smattering of pre-algorithmic grass-roots business acumen, and the support of friends made over the course of three decades, many who do know about Bounty Hunter would never have heard of them at all. Less acknowledged is their ability to fuse the fertile ground of homage with their own take on the phenomenon of classic hard rock. And while they may play covers, they have always felt that this is the far better vehicle from which to expose their original music to more of the masses rather than ramming a battery of unknown / untested originals down peoples' throats. (Once again, defying convention.) "We're smart. We're not an ego band", says band guitarist and infamous noise maniac Jimmy "The Mad Jap" Polston. "But once we're handed the hammer for our turn on stage, we're pounding it, so stay out of our way or we'll nail a shoe to the middle of the stage next time! We've learned from the best." Formed in 1982 from the ashes of the final Danny Joe Brown Band, [*2] Bounty Hunter™ consists of DJB Band alumni: singer & bassist Ronnie Able, and Polston, as holdovers from that vaulted and iconic band's last lineup; long-time Bounty Hunter drummer Brian Canaday and reunited singer & guitarist Ray Tomasino round out the talent. [*2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Danny_Joe_Brown_Band Polston goes on to say, "One thing that Danny Joe said to us --which always stuck with us-- is a simple maxim: 'Our fans deserve the show of their lives.' This band gets it. Some folks out there may think this is our last stand. Who's to say? Sure, we've had health issues, but rockstar -itis isn't one of them. And that gives us an advantage--with all due respect and each to one's own, but that's how we roll. See, the people ultimately own the stage, regardless of how much extra work we put into our thing, despite the honesty behind the songs. That's how it's done. We've figured it out. Dogged persistence and refusal to die all put aside, we have "finally gotten smart' as some in the record industry have told us in recent years. They know about us, and are still watching us because we can write and deliver the goods live on stage. Just as we pre-presented the 'classic rock' format in our geographical area and wrote songs that received regular airplay, we also have the ability to create fresh, cinematic rock music that just so happens to be from The South." With a renewed focus and hints of new music releases, the well-kept secret of Bounty Hunter may not be a secret for much longer. "Bounty Hunter™-- The First and Still Kickin'."
