Dare Force was a legendary hard rock/heavy metal band based in Minneapolis that was initially founded by Johnny O'Neil and Brian Bart when they were 18 years old. Dare Force released three albums in the 80s, and performed in concert with national acts such as KISS, Ted Nugent, Triumph, Kansas, UFO, the Joe Perry Project and Ratt, as well as headlining in venues throughout the US, Canada, Puerto Rico, and Venezuela. In 2023 the band hunkered down in writing and rehearsal sessions, then returning - along with now producer Brian Bart - to Winterland Studios in Minneapolis, as well as the legendary Pachyderm Studios in Cannon Falls, MN. The resulting album, “Brand New Day,” is the first to take advantage of all four members’ creative input and musicianship.

"A Rising Force" is an all original Minnesota band made up of musicians from prominent regional and national rock bands. They signed to Dark Star Records in 2021 and are described as "Old School Rock With a New World Attitude". Their debut album ‘Undertow’ was re-released in February 2022, with their 2nd album "Eclipse" released in June 2022. The band's single "Believe" spent 8 weeks on the Billboard charts. The new album "Truth" hit the top 100 Metal Contraband charts peaking at #61 and the first single "Thrill of a Lifetime" spent 6 weeks on the NAC charts peaking at number 16. TRUTH LINK
