So-Cal Rocket Dynamics is a heavy “neo” rockabilly band from the Los Angeles Area. Thier catchy and aggressive sound was born in the west coast car culture scene and it falls neatly between rockabilly and psychobilly. They combine vintage guitar styles and blisteringly slapped upright bass lines, with punk and swing rhythms to win your rock and roll heart. Their 2011 release “Santa Susana Meltdown” and 2014 release “Too Bad She wont live” are available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and most major online stores. You must hear this band, and see them live!
