JOHNNY O’NEIL released the first music video for the track Snake in the Grass taken from his debut solo album “Truth or Dare”.
“We had a blast shooting the video in a unique location – a venue in Wisconsin known as ‘The Wet BarN.’ It was a bit cold at first shooting in the winter, but after doing a few takes under the lights we warmed right up! The energy of the band you see in the video is also quite evident on the other tracks on the album. After only being released ten days ago, we have already received an overwhelmingly positive response from fans both old and new, as well as Internet stations from across the US, UK, Germany, and Spain!” – Johnny O’Neil
“Truth or Dare” is the blazing new solo debut from guitarist Johnny O’Neil, co-founder and mainstay of the Minnesota legendary hard rock band, Dare Force. It’s muscular, guitar-driven rock with a powerful foundation supplied by drummer Joachim Baecker, as well as a guest appearance by UFO’s original keyboardist, Danny Peyronel. Both O’Neil and Baecker are no strangers to the Midwest music scene, and have finally joined forces to lay down a new set of refreshing rock & roll. Engineer and co-producer Brian Bart (a Midwest legend in his own right, and co-founder of Dare Force along with O’Neil) has delivered a crisp, clean recording that fully captures O’Neil’s blistering guitar work. “Truth or Dare” features nine songs, including the first single from the album, “Snake in the Grass,” the symphonic rocker “Temple,” the driving instrumental “World Run Amuck,” and a rollicking remake of The Beatles’ classic, “Revolution.”
