One of my favorite SoCal bands in recent years is Suedehead. I first saw them open for Social Distortion for my birthday last year and then got to catch them rock it at Coachella 2012.
If you’re into the punk scene, you might recognize singer Davey Warsop from his old band Beat Union. And if you follow the ska scene, you might recognize the horn section from Riverside two-tone heroes The Debonaires. Here’s “Small Town Hero” and “Long Hot Summer” from Coachella 2012.
You can see Suedehead live Oct. 26 at The Fonda in LA with Tiger Army.
I mentioned The Debonaires before and they are yet another great Riverside band that deserves far more recognition than they have.
Here’s “Criminals” from a show at The Glass House last year.
