Back in the early 90's Tom Potter's band (at the time), "Three Limit Hill" broke up leaving Tom with several shows still lined up. With no band, Tom called up Eric Cook, "You wanna do something, we have two weeks to learn a set?" Tom and Eric kept it a two piece, because it was quicker and easier to come up with a set. Enjoying the sound they got, Tom and Eric kept the two piece lineup going. Early on they snagged Crypt Records which put out their first two full lengths and several 7" EPs. After many years Eric Cook decided to hang up the Rock-n-Roll lifestyle leaving Tom with a gigantic hole to fill. Tom decided to enlist Mike Alonso to fill the void in Bantam Rooster. Putting out their first 7" together on Big Neck Records and their first full length on Sympathy For The Record Industry, you will agree that Bantam Rooster has not lost their edge and has taken Rock-n-Roll to the next level.
