The DeRellas probably had more singers than you can think of, so this time bass player Timmy stands behind the mic and it's working really well on this brand new single "Inner City Rock'n'Roll", a glam punk rock'n'roll song full of street energy bringing early MANICS to mind. The band will release their new album... Continue Reading →
When I first saw the name of the band, I thought they were playing speed action rock and I couldn't be more wrong... Opening song "This Ain't a Radio Sound" immediately brings TOM PETTY and CHEAP TRICK to mind. "The Day I Call You Mine" and "Your Brown Eyes Look So Blue" sound more like... Continue Reading →

While changing vocalist is always risky for a band, The DERELLAS welcome Joey DeRella (their third singer!), and reinforce their glam punk sound on this brand new flashy 7" vinyl record...

"I Want More", "Empire State", and "Feel... Continue Reading →
