Rude Rock Family No No No Yeah CD

“No, no, no…yeah” is an album that reflects a change in writing and recording style from Rude Rock’s first album entitled “For the Masses…” . The first album began as a project of songs written by Noah Waggener, co-written and recorded by his long-time musical conspirator, Chris Moyles, under the production guidance Steve Van Dam, of the nationally acclaimed band “Everything”. After writing and recording the album, the project mutated into a full band, The Rude Rock Family, and a live production that has included themed performances, belly dancers, fire twirlers, and art installations. This culminated in a series of festivals called “The Rude Rock Ruckus” that promoted an amazing variety of artists and musicians. One might expect Rude Rock Family’s members to be jaded after years of rock n’ roll by night and various professions by day. After 10 years in the well known and respected D.C. punk band The Daycare Swindlers, Waggener and Reiter had other projects they worked on separately. Reiter was involved in several other D.C. bands when he began playing in Rude Rock Family in 2006. Waggener and Moyles meanwhile played in regional favorite Stick ‘Em Up for a few years before Rude Rock began playing live in the area in July 2003. But judging by the sound of the new album, “No, no, no…yeah”, Rude Rock Family have not lost their energy. Instead, “No, no,no…Yeah.” reflects the musical influences and writing skills of all five musicians. “Just about all the songs on the album were brought into out studio by one of us as a basic demo. All of us added in our own musical insanity as we took the demo ideas and built them into full songs, which we then played out at shows to tweak them. I think these songs really reflect Rude Rock as a group of good friends who like creating music together and having fun,” Chris explains, “ I think our fans really sense how much fun we have and that sets up a good vibe all around.”
