New styles of Jewelry that Rockers love to wear

When our designer collaborates with our favorite jewelry designer/fabricator the results are pendants that the men (and the ladies ) of Rock love to wear.

When coming up with ideas for new pendant designs we often have a specific Rocker in mind for prototype or the first piece of a new design. Joel Hoekstra of Night  Ranger has been a customer for years and as such we have some understanding of his style.

We co-designed our latest Fleur de Lis Pendant with Joel in mind. The design is a dark metal Fleur Design set on a semi-precious Dalmation Stone surrounded by jet hematite crystals in a dark metal setting. Here is a photo of yours truly with the guys from Night Ranger in which Joel is wearing his new pendant.

Night Ranger has several upcoming concert dates. They put on a fabulous show. Joel Hoekstra has also become part of TSO for upcoming East Coast Tour dates and continues to perform on Broadway and in the touring show of Rock of Ages. He is the busiest guitarist around!

We were recently asked to assist with the styling of Canadian Rock Band, SoulHeavy . Thinking about these guys style and wear they wanted to go with new stage wear got us thinking about a new type of Rocker Jewelry pendant. Dog Tags have always been a popular necklace design but I think that they are a bit too simple looking for a real Rocker and need something more to make them unique and edgy. To that end we just added four new pendant combos to our Rocker Jewelry offerings that are a combination of a metal design embellished Dog Tag with the addition of a Metal Pendant hanging together from a d-ring on a heavy metal chain (no cheesy ball chains here). We are loving these new designs, the first of each will soon be in the hands of the band members of SoulHeavy.  These designs are now available on TattooApparel.com for anyone that wants to rock their wardrobe with unique accessories.

 

Night Ranger to Rock California with Journey

If you have read this blog in the past then you know that our staff are big fans of guitarist Joel Hoekstra. Personally I am in awe of the schedule that Joel keeps. He manages to be in New York on Broadway in Rock of Ages one night and then performing with Night Ranger somewhere else the next night. The dude must have tons of frequent flyer miles!

If you are in Southern California then you have the opportunity to see Joel performing with Night Ranger at the San Manuel Amphitheater (formerly Glen Helen Pavilion) next Saturday, August 1st. We checked with Joel this morning and he assured us that he will be there with Night Ranger that night as part of the double bill show with Journey.

Joel also sent us the above shot of himself in our Doctrine Shades and Swords Shirt. Looking Good Joel!

Speaking of shots of Joel we found the blog of a Rock Photo Journalist by the name of Allen Ross Thomas. Allen's site ArtistXposure.com showcases some of his amazing photographs taken at Concerts. We were blown away by the photos he took of Joel and Night Ranger at Rocklahoma. We recommend that everyone into Rock Music check out his site to see amazing shots of some of your favorite performers. Below are some of our favorite shots that he took of Joel. In these shots Joel is wearing our Rock Royalty Crown pendant from our Rocker Jewelry Line.

Rock Star Jewelry

We have been receiving emails asking who the guy playing the guitar in the blue picture seen on our Squidoo How To Dress Like a Rock Star lens is.

That is Joel Hoekstra of Night Ranger. Joel is currently performing in the Off Broadway show Rock of Ages in New York while Night Ranger is on hiatus. He is wearing the Rocker Crown Pendant which is available at RockerJewelry.com .

Here is a photo of our friend Jim who is the Bass player for L.A. based band Uncle Daddy and a model for Fender Clothing. Jim is seen wearing the Leather Skull Pendant in this photo of him with one of the gorgeous bartenders at L.A.'s Rainbow Club.

We like RockerJewelry.com for Rock Star style jewelry because they work with L.A. designers to have pieces fabricated just for them. They recently added some new pendants and cuff bracelets with great unisex appeal as seen in the photos below.
