Bruce Wojick & The Struggle are celebrating the release of their new album, “The Hard Way,” at the Ninth Ward at Babeville, 341 Delaware Ave., Buffalo, at 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 3.

Tickets are available here. For more information, visit babevillebuffalo.com/events/bruce-wojick-the-struggle-album-release-show/.

“The Hard Way" is also being released on digital and vinyl via Segno Records.

Wojick sees his and The Struggle’s new album, “The Hard Way,” as “the culmination of every lesson learned on stage, in the studio, and on the road, and made by musicians who've lived it. Each song was written on the same acoustic guitar my mom bought me as a kid, which might tell you everything you need to know. So, we keep writing, plowing through, and still in ‘The Struggle.’ ”

The artist produced the band’s forthcoming album, which features guest appearances by drummer Bobby Rondinelli (Rainbow, Black Sabbath, BÖC), vocalist Erin Hoyle, and Bruce’s son, Vito Wojick. It’s the culmination of a lifetime spent chasing honest music – and finding it in the most familiar places: in the room with people who show up and give a damn.

Wojick is a veteran singer-songwriter and guitarist from Niagara Falls whose band, The Struggle, embodies both his musical identity and his personal journey. From obsessively flipping 45s as a kid to playing showcases at CBGB and opening for legends such as Blind Melon and Chuck Berry, Wojick’s story is one of persistence, reinvention and grit.

With formative stints in bands God’s Children and Klear, he carved out a successful career rooted in collaborative songwriting and fueled by desire. Those chapters, though filled with near-misses and hard lessons, became stepping stones to what he now calls his musical home base: The Struggle. Anchored by longtime collaborators and friends, the band’s chemistry and commitment are palpable, performing original rock music shaped by decades of experience.

For Wojick, the struggle isn’t just a name; it’s proof that he never gave up.
