The Blasters
The Blasters are a roots rock band formed in the late 1970s in Downey, California, by brothers Phil and Dave Alvin. Known for their fiery blend of rockabilly, punk energy, rhythm and blues, and American roots music, The Blasters became a critical part of the early '80s L.A. punk and roots revival scene. Their tight musicianship, high-energy shows, and passionate dedication to American music traditions earned them a loyal following, and songs like "Marie Marie" and "American Music" became standout tracks that bridged genres and generations.
The band released their self-titled major label debut in 1981, earning praise for its authentic yet fresh take on roots rock. Though Dave Alvin left the group in the mid-1980s to pursue a solo career, Phil Alvin continued to lead The Blasters through various lineup changes. Over the decades, they've remained a compelling live act with a rich discography that captures the spirit of American rock and roll.
