52ND STREET - OLD SCHOOL

The 52ND STREET BAND came to prominence in the early 1990's. It is the contributions of those from the early years of the band we acknoledge here. For they layed the foundation for success the band has enjoyed since then until today.

*

52nd Street is also grateful to still enlist the fine talents of some past members from time to time such as Dewey Ribustella, Rick Cyr and Bobby Spro. We must also note some of the longest tenured members of the band: Ed Kuri, Troy Rusnack and Mike Donnelly. * And a special thanks goes to the original line-up, especially Drew Laura who co-founded the group with Danny V.
