About LOS STRAITJACKETS:

“Los Straitjackets make their long-awaited return with Somos Los Straitjackets”

- Glide Magazine
 
“this four-piece has coalesced into a tight rocking outfit.”
- Americana UK

“The songs are diverse yet constructed with a retro mindset that never feels studied or stale. Additionally, it’s clear that the foursome is comprised of wildly talented members not only as players, but arrangers, keeping the tunes tight whether they are frothy, rollicking or romantic.”
- Rock & Blues Muse

September 19, 2025: Rock’n’roll veterans Los Straitjackets have released their first new album of all-original material in over 13 years, Somos Los Straitjackets, available everywhere today through Yep Roc Records. Produced by Alex Hall (JD McPherson, The Cactus Blossoms), Somos Los Straitjackets marks their long-awaited return and demonstrates why they have reigned as the kings of modern instrumental rock for over thirty years.

About DEKE DICKERSON:
 
Deke Dickerson’s newest band venture is Deke Dickerson and the Whippersnappers. Dickerson is a veteran of the Southern California roots music scene and has toured for years with various bands, including the Dave and Deke Combo and Deke Dickerson and the Ecco-Fonics. His former band members have gone on to play with Social Distortion, X, Tiger Army, and Los Straitjackets.

The Whippersnappers are an energetic backing band of younger musicians from Los Angeles: Bert Avalos on guitar, Zander Griffith on bass, and Dylan Patterson on drums. With Dickerson’s experience entertaining audiences worldwide and the Whippersnappers’ shot in the arm of rockabilly excitement, the band has been thrilling fans all over the United States (playing such festivals as Viva Las Vegas and touring the East and West Coasts) and Europe (at festivals like the Rockabilly Rave in England and the Rockin’ Race Jamboree in Spain).

The band released their debut album, Honky Tonkin’ Rhythm, in 2023 on Major Label Records and have been touring behind it since.
