Biography:

Rockhead was a Canadian hard rock music group formed in 1991 in Vancouver by Bob Rock.

Already a well-established music producer, guitarist Bob Rock formed the group in 1991 with his Payola$ and Rock and Hyde bandmate, drummer Chris Taylor, as well as vocalist Steve Jack and bassist Jamey Koch. Jack and Koch, as well as keyboardist John Webster, were all local Vancouver, British Columbia musicians. Their debut single was called "Heartland". Rock produced the band's debut effort, which was released on Capitol Records in 1992. Members of Bon Jovi, The Cult, and Little Caesar guested on the album. The singles "Bed of Roses" and "Chelsea Rose" followed, as did a tour supporting Bon Jovi. However, the album did not sell well, and soon after the group disbanded and Rock returned to his career in production.

Rockhead were a hard rock band with pop overtones formed and named after successful music producer/musician Bob Rock.

Guitarist Bob Rock and drummer Chris Taylor played together in new wave bands Payola$ and Rock N'Hyde, before the later disbanded in 1989. Rock decided to pursue a production career and worked with bands such as Motley Crue, Cher and Metallica, but he continued to keep in touch with Taylor and never lost his desire to write music and perform.

So Rock and Taylor recruited Vancouver, British Columbia bar band veterans Steve Jack (vocals), Jamey Kosh (bass) and John Webster (keyboards). The band recorded off and on before releasing their debut album (1992's Rockhead) roughly three years after they had formed. The debut featured guest appearances from members of Bon Jovi, The Cult and /Little Caesar. The group toured sporadically in support of the album before disbanding, and Rock returning to production.
