New album and tour in 2016 by pure rock’n’rollers. The Bullhounds consist of 3 original members of The Georgia Satellites and a long time friend of theirs, Erling Daell.
Erling Daell – vocals
Mauro Magellan – drums (GS, Dan Baird & Homemade Sin)
Rick Richards – guitar (GS, Izzy Stradlin)
Keith Christopher – bass (Keith & the Satellites, Dan Baird & Homemade Sin, Kenny Wayne Shepherd)
The debut album “protector” reached number 4 in the Danish Album Top 40 last summer. Furthermore, it was the 4th best album released in 2014 according to www.rocktip.de (Germany).
Album no. 2 “To Rock & To Serve” will be released April 15 2016. The band was on a very successful tour of Denmark and Sweden in January 2016 and is ready to rock again. The Bullhounds have the crispness of The Black Crowes, Neil Young & Crazy Horse, The Rolling Stones and the unspoiled energy of The Hives and The Ramones.
Back in the late 1980s the great Southern rock band The Georgia Satellites sold millions of albums, had big hits with “Keep Your Hands To Yourself”, “Hippy Hippy Shake” and “Battleship Chains” and played concerts that the spectators never will forget. The band split in two in 1991: Vocalist/guitar player Dan Baird pursued a solo career and together with drummer Mauro Magellan he continued under his own name. Guitar player Rick Richards and bass player Rick Price continued under the Georgia Satellites name.
In 2010 long time friend of the band members Erling Daell told Rick that he was thinking of making a rock band and maybe – hypothetically – that band would eventually record an album. Rick said:- If you’re making an album, I wanna play guitar on that album. A few months later Erling talked to Mauro who said: – If you’re making an album, I wanna play drums on that album.
Bass player Keith Christopher from the pre-Georgia Satellites line-up Keith And The Satellites joined and Erling had not only gathered a band, but reunited some of the strongest rockers for the first time in 25 years. This was to become The Bullhounds.
The debut album “protector” generated quite some success and made it to number 4 in the Danish album charts and it was the 4th best album released in 2014 according to Rocktip in Germany. Many positive reactions paved the way to a new recording session. The result is the album “To Rock & To Serve” which will be released April 15 2016.
The Bullhounds want to rock. The band see it as an honor as well as an important task to revitalize pure, no bull straight, fat and greasy Southern rock. Rick, Mauro and Keith playing together today – with all their musical experience – is just as tight and thick as Southern rock will ever get. Nobody else does it better. Add the vocals from Erling and the result gets even more powerful. It bites. Which was shown during the band’s first – and very successful – tour in January 2016, which took place in Denmark and Sweden.
