THE TURBO ACs (USA)
The wonderful Turbo ACs are back in Europe! After celebrating the 20th anniversary of their 2003 album “Automatic” in 2024 and the release of a special edition of this album (Concrete Jungle Rec), Kevin and Co can not wait to get started again, and an extensive fall tour in 2025 comes at just the right time.
Founded in the early 90s, it all started in the streets of New York City, where THE TURBO A.C.’s created their own surf punk sound right from the start.
Numerous EPs and sampler contributions on various labels followed before they made big waves, especially in Europe, with their debut album “Damnation Overdrive” in 1996, which was released on the New York record label Blackout! Records.
With the unmistakable voice of frontman Kevin Cole and elements of Dick Dale, Ramones, Misfits and Motörhead, they have been chosen as the favorite band of many rock and roll fans. A really cool band with really cool songs, lyrics and an attitude to fall in love with.
