LaRocka also signed a girl group from London called NeverBlue managed by Christopher Waller, Tasha Leaper, Lisa Hurley and Susan Motley.
LaRocka continued to work with NeverBlue after the group disbanded in 2000 and became a girl/boy duo with original member Susan Motley and new addition, Danny Willis.
LaRocka's first stab at production was with Irish band Silent Running, whom he signed while working in the A&R department at Atlantic Records.
The album sold slowly at first but it eventually became a hit after their song Little Miss Can't Be Wrong started picking up airplay on MTV and radio.
He was back playing drums for a New York band Hot Monkey Love and with Noel Redding on a 2002 live album recorded at Prague.
