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.
A new 12” Maxi Single called “Unchained” will be released for the upcoming tour.

In the late ’70s, The Avengers burst out of San Francisco, establishing themselves as one of the US’s preeminent punk bands. Their live shows were legendary, playing up and down the West Coast and even blowing Sex Pistols off the stage at the latter’s final performance.
The Pink Album remains The Avengers’ definitive statement – collecting their classic Dangerhouse EP, sessions recorded with the Pistols’ Steve Jones and a half-dozen revelatory demos. While much has been written about The Avengers in the past three decades, rock critic Greil Marcus puts it succinctly, “The word I always come back to is mystical, and that remains almost theirs alone.” “The most powerful band in San Francisco, and America’s best straight-ahead punk band.” –

Following Guitar Gangsters’ 35 the anniversary in 2023, the next chapter of the bands history is about to be written. 11 album releases and tours in 28 countries just isn’t enough! Guitar Gangsters continue to produce stunning live shows and new releases which remain true to their melodic punk roots – slices of suburban life, failed love, failed ambition and social politics packed into three- minute power punk gems.
In 2019 this London three piece became a four piece with the addition of Ed Sonsino on guitar – the big sound got even bigger! In a post pandemic 2022, Guitar Gangsters made a return with the release of their 11th studio album, “Fortune Favours The Brave” and gigged throughout 2022 in UK and Europe. 2024 sees the release of the vinyl EP “The Faithful”, the title track for which is a salute to all those that have found punk to be the place where they belong. To mark the 35th anniversary of the release of the band’s first album “Prohibition”, a new vinyl live studio session performance will be released in May.
Guitar Gangsters will always stick proudly to their inspirational punk rock guns with more than just a hint of rock’n’roll attitude. With a formidable back catalogue and a swagger that is only achieved through years of experience, there’s never been a better time to see this band live and to be part of the next chapter.

Blues is the teacher. Punk is the Preacher. It’s all about emotion and energy. Experience and raw talent, spirit and intellect. Bob Vennum and Lisa Kekaula made The BellRays happen in 1990 in Riverside, California and they took everything they knew about; the Beatles, Stevie Wonder, the Who, the Ramones Billie Holiday, Lou Rawls, Hank Williams, the DB’s, Jimmy Reed, and Led Zeppelin and pressed it into service.
Those bands and artists have since become “buzz words”, things to imitate and sound like. That was never The BellRays intention.
It’s an organic trail that flows through Bob and Lisa and the current rhythm section of Pablo Rodas (Lisa and the Lips, Alber Solo) on bass and Craig Waters (Countdowns, Andre Williams, Cody Chestnut) on drums, and comes out honest and urgent. You will learn and you will feel. Blues is always teaching and Punk is always preaching.
Their latest and 15th album „Heavy steady go“ got released on the 30th of August 2024.
