Love this pic of Sam Morrison Band, drummer & guitarist, Bart Robley & Steve Steven Cenker . . . Rock and Roll Brothers in every sense. Heres my Top 10 Fun Facts for The Bad Boys of SMB: 10. Joined at the hip and separated at birth, Bart & Steve have been making music together for 20 years, longer than most Hollywood marriages already & they are just getting started. 9. 2/3 of the popular 90s Metal Trio, WAR CRIME, their 90s album No Escape in all its raw glory, was an underground hit in Los Angeles and received rave reviews in Europe,garnering extensive airplay and a huge overseas audience. 8. Role models, Steve & Bart maintain a healthy, balanced diet: A cold Heineken in one hand and a bottle of Jack Daniels in the other. 7. I can neither confirm nor deny that Steve Cenker is Gene Simmons or Ozzy Osborne although they have never in fact been photographed in the same room. 6. You will never see Bart & Steve playing with backing tracks, sequencing or any other gimmick. Authenticity is their solemn creed. 5. Bart is endorsed by Gretsch Drums, Symphonic Percussion Drums, Aquarian Heads, Crescent Cymbals, Gibraltar Hardware, Vic Firth Sticks, Trick Bass Drum Pedals, The Kelly Shu, Kickport Gorilla Snot and Hal Leonard Publishing. 4. There is no truth to the rumor that Steve Cenker gave the Double Bird Salute to a One Man Band Act when his karaoke-ish tracks misfired a la Ashlee Simpson. 3. While they truly embody the west coast vibe, both are transplants to Orange County. Bart hails from Littleton, Colorado while Steve is a native of Weirton, West Virginia. 2. Their contributions to the original Sam Morrison Band catalog are epic. In a recent review of the Sam Morrison Bands, new release DIG IT OR DONT, Vernon Tart wrote: The guitar work is classic southern rock, dueling guitars with soaring melodies. Dig it or Don’t is a solid success, Sam Morrison catches the essence of several styles of music but at the same time retains his individualism with the help of his band mates and as a unit they play hard hitting music that you should dig, but your loss if you don’t. And the Number One fun fact about Bart & Steve, (Drum roll Bart please) . . . 1. You would be hard pressed to find two more loyal bandmates or friends. Heres a Steve Cenker SALUTE to Southern Rocks Odd Couple. Something tells me someday, when the music of SMB has been etched in the minds of the masses and their discography complete, like Jack Lemmon & Walter Matthau, these 2 friends will probably be buried nearby each other in the same cemetery. Friends & Rock and Roll Brothers, Bart Robley & Steven Cenker. Onward & Upward!
