Los Straitjackets

Los Straitjackets is an American instrumental rock band that formed in Nashville, Tennessee, United States, in 1988. Originally comprising guitarists Danny Amis (formerly of the Raybeats), Eddie Angel and drummer L. J. "Jimmy" Lester under the name The Straitjackets, the band split up soon after forming, but reunited as Los Straitjackets in 1994 with the addition of bassist E. Scott Esbeck. Esbeck left the band in 1998 and was replaced by Pete Curry. The current lineup also features Greg Townson on guitar and Chris Sprague on drums.

The band has released fourteen studio albums, four collaboration albums and eight live albums.

Red Elvises ROCK. Saw them here at Jovita's years ago. That huge balalaika (sp?) was a hit.

Loves me some Los Straitjackets.

Surfs You Right!

That's not Herman. Traction pads didn't exist when the Munsters were on and they never did a surfing show. Batman on the other hand...

If this floats your boat, try Shadowy Men on A Shadowy Planet.  Some fine CanCon.

I saw them open for Reverend Horton Heat in 1998. What a blast. They did a cover of "My Heart Will Go On" that was just hilarious.
 
Surf rock and rockabilly, a couple of rock sounds you don't hear enough of these days. Sounds like a hell of a show!
