Biography

Tampa, Florida band that scored high on the credibility stakes but ultimately failed to make commercial headway. Both WHITE WITCH albums are highly regarded although hard to find slabs of melodic Hard Rock. Bass player Charlie Souza and keyboard player Buddy Pendergrass were both veterans of THE FABULOUS TROPICS, a band that scored an American number 1 with 'Take The Time'. Souza had also performed as part of the GREGG ALLMAN band on his 'Laid Back' album, Florida's BACCHUS and with CACTUS. WHITE WITCH also inducted drummer Bill Peterson, another ex-BACCHUS man, for 1973's 'Spiritual Greetings'.

Vocalist RON GOEDERT later cut a solo album. Souza later joined TOM PETTY, GALEFORCE and FORTRESS. He has also been a member of SLY AND THE FAMILY STONE and worked with ex-SANTANA man LEON PATILLO.

Souza and Pendergrass reactivated THE FABULOUS TROPICS in 1999. Ron Goedert passed away on 16th July 2000.
