Artist Info: The Rustix

The Rustix were a super popular R&B band during the late 1960's in the western NY area particularly in Rochester.
My experience with the band began in early 1967.I had been drumming for a band named The Invictas. I was becoming bored with the style of music played by The Invictas and coincidentally a new, up and coming group, The Rustix, had lost their drummer,Bobby Blandino, to the armed forces. The two groups had been playing at the same club known as the Varsity Inn. [read more...]
