Artist Info: Roadrats

Roadrats was a Swedish glam-punk band formed in 1984 by three musicians from Stockholm in Sweden. The drummer, Gyp Casino, had previously played with the punk bands Warszawa and Warheads. He also played from 1980-1982 in the Finnish glam-rock band Hanoi Rocks, but had to quit because of a fight with bandmate Andy McCoy. Roadrats got their major engagements in Finland due to Gyp Casino's popularity as a former Hanoi Rocks member, often playing as a support act to Hanoi Rocks. [read more...]
