Name the frontman from the backup band

Nathaniel Rateliff

The Bad Seeds

Nick Cave

The Tennessee Two

Johnny Cash

The Stone Poneys

Linda Ronstadt

The Stone Canyon Band

Rick Nelson

Rendezvous Band (the naming pattern is a bit different, but I hope it counts)

I think you may have killed the thread. So I’ll start up again:

His Delta Cats (their song “Rocket 88” is deemed the first ever rock 'n roll song)

Jackie Brenston.

___________ and the Pork Pistols.

Donny Baker.

______ and his Hot Licks.

Sorry, maybe that really was too obscure. I was going for Sonic’s Rendezvous Band, that was Sonic Smith’s band after the MC5.

Dan Hicks

@burpo_the_wonder_mutt , you forgot to name another band.

Sorry, been laid up for two days.

BIP: the Jets

Leroy Wolfgramm?

His Cast of Idiots

I would have guessed "“Benny”.

Rick Dees (god, I remember “Disco Duck”…)

Freddie

Yes, I was thinking Bennie.

Or even Kenni
