Recently, we caught up with veteran Frontman, Ron Young of Little Caesar. Among other things, we touch on how Little Caesar is kicking off 2022, the band’s early years and formation, the band’s latest remaster of American Dream, and a whole lot more.

“My solo albums are, for the most part, collections of who I am as an artist. I mainly try not to repeat myself from the other bands, or projects in my solo stuff because it softens the impact of what I am doing with them if I am doing it on my own as well.”
While you may not know Ray West by his face, or by his name, one thing is certain, take one listen to the music of Spread Eagle, and you will know West by the scream.
Throughout Heavy Metal and Hard Rock history, there have been a great many frontmen, but few have done the job with the level of consistency, and integrity as Tony Martin.
