PAPA WHEELIE Bassist's ORBITER 500 Releases Debut Album

February 6, 2012

PAPA WHEELIE bassist Joe Ledesma (a.k.a. Joefus) and his band ORBITER 500 from Oakland, California just released its new album, "XL".

ORBITER 500's sonic road trip takes you through super-heavy riffs and crushing grooves mixed with powerful vocals and uncompromising, explosive, live performances.

Putting rubber to the road in 2008, the Bay Area band began bringing its high-octane throwback style of rock to stages across the West Coast. Two demos and two years of touring later, the 500 crew is poised and ready to release the fury of its first full-length album upon the masses.

ORBITER 500 is:

Greg Philpott - Guitar
Rob Campbell - Vox
Joe Ledesma - Bass
Rob Tucker - Drums
