Howling Diablos

Detroit has long been considered a magical, mystikal, musical Mecca , where sonic geniuses seem to spring out of the empty, weed choked, abandoned city lots. Alot of this is true, some is merely myth.The truth being that in the tough industrial environment of the Motor City, it takes guts, sweat, and big talent to 'Make it'.

The Howling Diablos have a street credibility that was forged in Detroit over 2 decades of playing in countless sweaty bars, clubs, and theatres...ask anyone on 8 Mile Rd.

Like the Rolling Stones, Stooges, MC5, and so many other great live 'in-the-moment' rock n roll bands...the Diablos are acknowledged for their great live show, but could they ever make a great record?

Their 2011 release,'Ultra Sonic Gas Can' is that record. The Diablos have stepped up their game and smacked a Reggie Jackson-style homerun off the upper deck light towers. This is the Diablos 'Exile On Main Street'. Produced by Tino Gross, 'Gas Can' is the record that will resonate beyond the 'D' and onto the world stage...in a very rockin way.

Mixing Detroit elements like Soul, Funk, Blues, Rap, and Rock N Roll, the Diablos have finally concocted their 'Masterpiece' record album!
The Diablos are Tino Gross/vocals, Johnny Evans/Sax and Harp, Mo Hollis/bass, Erik Gustafson/guitar, and Detroit legend Johnny 'Bee' Badanjek/drums.

Plus Detroit guests like Robert Bateman, Jimmie Bones, HUSH, Uncle Kracker, Jim McCarty, Kymberli Wright, and more are on board . Funky D Records is PROUD to present 'Ultra Sonic Gas Can' in 2011. Holla!
