Kevin “Snit” Fitzpatrick🙁pictured) the former founding member of the Hollisters, Kevin “Snit” Fitzpatrick steps up front from the drums to become this band’s lead singer and rhythm guitarist. Always a big fan of Chuck Berry, “Snit” brings his life of the party persona to the stage when Snit’s Dog and Pony Show performs. Although this group has been a part time project for several years beginning in Atlanta in the late 80’s, Snit’s Dog and Pony show did not become a full time act until March 2001.
Sam Dunlap: Being influenced by Texas guitar players such as Freddie King, T-Bone Walker, Albert Collins, and Jimmy Vaughan, and by Chicago greats Otis Rush, Magic Sam and Buddy Guy, Sam’s main love Albert and BB King, Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed and of course, Chuck Berry. Throughout the 80’s Sam has played on the road and locally in the Midwest region with The Sons and the Agents playing roots rock, rock-a-billy and original music. Moving to Florida in ’88 he focused on playing blues and continued writing and performing original songs. He recorded a record on an independent label with a band called Medicine Man for which wrote most of the music.
J.D. DiTullio: J.D.’s first “informal” introduction to drumming would have to be as a baby beating on pots and pans on the kitchen floor while his mother was cooking. J.D.’s first “formal” drum instruction started in Atlanta, GA in the sixth grade as a percussionist in a symphonic band and would continue for the next seven years with traveling, performing, competitions, marching bands, and the drum corp. J.D.’s mom bought him his first drum set for $150 while he was in the eighth grade. He taught himself to play by listening to his favorite records. While every drum part taught in school had to be played right handed, J.D. was truly left handed.
