Who said LA wasn’t down for some rockabilly! Holding her record release show for “Mayhem” at the El Rey, Irish beauty Imelda May (vocals/Bodran) and her top-notch band, including her husband Darrel Higham (guitar), Al Gare (double bass/bass guitar) Dave Priseman (trumpet/Flugelhorn/guitar) and Steve Rushton on drums were as tight as they could be. LA’s own Luis and the Wildfires were perfect openers bringing a combination of rock/rockabilly and a little punk. Photos from July 19, 2011 by Debi Del Grande.
