Dirt Bike Annie was a rock band formed in New York City that played pop punk and power pop music.[1]
Band history
Dirt Bike Annie was formed in 1993 by Adam Rabuck while he was a student at New York University.[2] The band's two other consistent members throughout the years were bassist/vocalist Dan Paquin and guitarist/vocalist Jeanie Lee. Drummers in the band included Mike Yannich (later of The Ergs!), Heth Weinstein[3] (later of Heth and Jed, who during his tenure with the band was called "Dirt Bike Deano"), Tommy Vinton from Too Much Joy, and Dennis Donaghy.
At the top of 1996, Dirt Bike Annie released their first 7" on their own label called Richie Records.[4]
During the early phase of the career of rapper MC Chris, Dirt Bike Annie regularly performed as his backing band under their stage name, 'The Lee Majors'.
In 2003, the band contributed two songs to the Project Gotham Racing 2 soundtrack.[5]
After a decade of touring and releasing records, the group disbanded in 2005 when Lee and Paquin left the band. One of their last shows together was on May 3 of that year, opening for MC Chris at the Continental in New York City. Lee left the band first, and Paquin decided to leave shortly thereafter.[6] At that point, the remaining members decided it best to break up the band for good.[7]
Founder, guitarist and lead singer Adam Rabuck has gone on to form The Impulse International and Rock University at Pennridge High School. Yannich (a.k.a. "Mikey Erg") has been a prolific performer in the punk scene as a songwriter, solo performer, and drummer for countless bands.
In 2010, Rabuck, Paquin and Mike Yannich played a 90-minute reunion set at the Insubordination Fest in Baltimore.[8]
On June 10 2023, Rabuck, Lee, Paquin and Yannich reunited to perform at Bloated Kat Records' Bloated Fest at TV Eye in Queens, NY. It was their first performance with this lineup in nearly 20 years.
The four also contributed to the Whimsyland album, written by Chadd Derkins and released on Bloated Kat Records.[9][10]
