History

Hey, all you rockers, booking agents, club owners, party coordinators, bar owners! Here's how it all came together.

Top Dog was formed in 2007 by vocalist Tommy Lynn and guitarist/keyboardist/vocalist Bobby Wassmuth. The two went through several line-up and name changes before settling on their current moniker and group, which now includes Freddy Villano on bass & vocals, Tim Martin on drums & vocals and John Rodriguez on lead guitar & vocals. For more about each member’s personal history and Top Dog’s pedigree please see “bios.”

Top Dog covers the best Top 40 from the past four decades, some southern rock, a little blues & as ALWAYS...some good old hard Rock & Roll!

Top Dog’s specific arsenal includes a tribute to the ‘80’s that runs the gamut from John Cougar Mellencamp to Poison to Duran Duran.  They also rock a contemporary set that features the music of Green Day, My Chemical Romance, RHCP, etc.  Their own smoking renditions of classic songs like “Ain’t to Proud to Beg,” “Get Ready,” “No Matter What” and “Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress” are sure to be legendary on the Long Island circuit.  

 

We hope you enjoy Top Dog.

See ya soon,
Tommy Lynn
