These hard rockers have been terrorizing the southeastern US for years and are now set to break out with their first release on RFK later this year. \u201cRoy has the pipes, personality and passion required to be a world-class frontman,\u201d Ron explains, \u201cand he\u2019s part of the Keel family tree. The band, the songs, the style and the image are all killer, and we couldn\u2019t be more excited about our first signing to the RFK roster.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Keel and his partners have also joined forces with Uncontrolled Noize to unleash <a href=\"http:\/\/krfkradio.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/krfkradio.com<\/a> a state-of-the-art online streaming station that will feature a massive playlist of all rock from all genres and top-rated syndicated programming. KRFK is the only exclusively online station with broadcast rights to \u201cHouse Of Hair with Dee Snider\u201d and \u201cThe Joe Elliott Show;\u201d the station will of course be home to Ron Keel\u2019s \u201cStreets Of Rock N Roll\u201d radio show each week.<\/p>\n<p>RFK Media plans to release brand new music from Ron Keel Band, Keel, Steeler, IronHorse and other projects from Ron\u2019s history, with a succession of singles in 2022 leading up to the compilation album \u201cKEELWORLD\u201d in January 2023, which will be a collection of all-new tracks from those bands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s time,\u201d Ron insists. \u201cWhen HighVol Music chief Bill Chavis died [along with his wife Lori, from Covid-19] we lost not only two dear friends but our record deal as well.
