limited Hurricane Alice. Due to conflict with metal band Hurricane
(band), they changed the spelling of their name to Hericane Alice for
their second album. The second album Tear The House Down released in
1990 was more popular and released on a major label Atlantic Records.
Songs from tear the House Down include the fast paced and hard partying
Wild, Young, and Crazy along with Tear the House Down. They have a
ballad titled Dream Girl. Two band members (Ian Mayo and Jackie Ramos)
joined the band Bangalore Choir (with David Reece) another short lived
band. The vocalist Bruce Naumann reformed the band recently with Johnny
holiday (lead guitar) Chris Lakey (drums)& John Keyte(bass.)

Info:
Hericane Alice was your typical hair-metal band that put the fun back
into hard rock. But like so many other bands that didn't get a major
label deal until the late 80s, they were largely ignored by the record
buying public.
Hurricane Alice originally formed in Minnesota as a
three piece consisting of Leni Dimancari (guitar and vocals), Scott
Werner (bass) and Rusty Miller (drums). For over eight months the three
guys worked on material before beginning their search for a full time
vocalist. David Reece was asked to sing on the original demos but
refused when his current band Lillian X was about to hit the road. After
scouting for front-men the next choice was Bruce Naumann, whose current
band The Employers was somewhat on hiatus. However Naumann wasn't quite
ready to desert The Employers, so the three original Hurricane Alice
members hooked up with Jeff Meyers in Steele. But the guys were unhappy
with being a backup band and decided to resume their search for a
singer. Luckily Naumann decided he was interested in fronting the group
and they started gathering a loyal following and even interest from
Atlantic records, but inside tension led to Dimancari leaving the band
to work with some Y&T members in Rising Tyger.
In 1988
Hurricane Alice left for the bright lights of Los Angeles. Werner soon
left to join Black 'N Blue front man Jaime St. James in Freight Train
Jane and troubles with the law led to the departure of Miller. Naumann,
now the focus of the band, continued forward with new members Danny Gill
(guitar), Ian Mayo (bass) and Jackie Ramos (drums). The band decided to
change its name to Hericane Alice due to an impeding lawsuit with
L.A.'s Hurricane and released their debut. Tear the House Down was a
nice collection of hard rock, but failed to make any commercial inroads
and Hericane Alice disintegrated.
Miller contacted Reece (after his
short stint with Accept) and the two started Bangalore Choir. But once
again Miller would be out of the picture when Bangalore Choir, complete
with Mayo and Ramos started recording. Dimancari pursued a solo career
and Naumann and Werner formed a band called the Mighty Roostas. Mayo and
Ramos would also later work together with Doug Aldrich in Burning Rain.
