Hammer Damage was founded in 1978 by Mike Hammer and Dave Zagar (a.k.a Donny Damage) after their split from the Rubber City Rebels.
The original line-up included George Cabaniss on guitar, Scott Winkler on bass, Damage on guitar and Hammer on drums. The Hammer Damage Band started out in 1978 and quickly built a strong following in the Akron-Kent music scene. They also enjoyed some modest success in Cleveland.
Some of the band's highlights included opening for the B-52's and Public Image at the Cleveland Agora and several shows in NYC with the Dead Boys.
The band released a couple of singles and appeared on a compilation of Ohio bands.
After some extended trips to New York and LA, and several line-up changes, the band finally fizzled out around 1982. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
