The Rumbles

1994 - 1999

The Rumbles have been one of the most popular and successful bands in the Midwest for nearly 40 years.Original members of the Rumbles, formed in 1963, were Steve Hough, Joe Brunnworth, Bud Phillips and Rich Clayton. Only Steve remains as a member today. The Rumbles made their professional debut under the Eddy Haddad Agency in 1964. 1967 brought the hit 45 "Jezebel" which reached #1 in several local markets. Around 1970 psychedelic Music became so popular, attendance at dances declined rapidly and The Rumbles disbanded. In 1979, the group was asked to do a reunion concert at Omaha's Peony Park. They played together again for the first time in eight years. The dance was such a huge success, the band decided to reform later that year. The lead guitarist position was filled by Lance Hancock because Joe Brunnworth had moved to California. Eddy Haddad returned as The Rumbles manager and booking agent. He remained with them until he retired in 1985 and Steve took over his duties.
