Drummer James Dillard recalled “Robbie Sines and I founded The Robbie Sines Revue which turned into DBS Express then New South Band (I came up with the name). The club in Odenton we played was The Golden Flame, now called Perry’s. I also played for Robbie’s Father Ronnie Sines & The Heatwaves before Robbie when I was around 16 or 17 at Mike’s Crab House in Edgewater.”
James and Jack Dillard went on to play in many country groups together throughout the ’80s and ’90s, then in early ’00s with rock group Steel Force. James later with Superswank, Chopper Trike Rebels, and Mojo.

Other members of The Revue included Keith Moreland (bass), Kenny Stepp (guitar), Bobby Cannon (bass), Jack Dillard (guitar), Mark Zepp (guitar)…
