From the shaky town of Los Angeles, California.. we bring you ROCK n ROLL!

The NICO BONES Band are a 4-piece American Rock n Roll band formed in 2014 in Long Beach, California, and now have their headquarters in Downtown Los Angeles. Current members consist of Nico Bones on guitar and vocals, Manny Danger on drums, Donny Rox on guitar, and Wild Will Bardot on bass. They had all met through various rock n roll parties and punk rock shows throughout the years.

Nico Bones band has preformed alongside some legendary acts such as The Vibrators, Dead Boys, the Zeros, Slaughter and the Dogs, 999, Rose Tattoo, The Adverts, JFA, Agent Orange, The Briefs, Hollywood Stars, the Dogs, Fur Dixon, the Sloths, Wyldlife and many more. Their musical influences range from Punk Rock n Roll, but also Glam, Pub Rock, and Garage Rock, such as The Rolling Stones, the New York Dolls, Ramones, Stooges, Eddie Cochran, Hanoi Rocks, Thin Lizzy, and Alice Cooper.

Their unique brand of entertainment fuses loud, energetic Punk Rock and melodic Rock n Roll songs that light the stage on fire and get you rockin without a doubt! Nico Bones has also appeared on national television on American Idol debuting his version of the nursery rhyme ’Worms’ season 16 (2018). Currently ‘Lipstick Alley’ is the newest full length released on all platforms and vinyl (Savage Magic Records) and CD (Dental Records) November (2023).

“If Stiv Bators could play guitar like Johnny Thunders and write songs as brilliant as Dee Dee Ramone” -(Dental Records) and they go on to say “Lipstick Alley tips its hat to all the greats that came before it while keeping it fresh … ROCK AND ROLL is certainly alive and well today!”

More recently Nico Bones are getting prepared to release a six song ep “SWEET HEART BREAK” this summer with (Wanda Records), (Ghost Highway Records), and (Savage Magic Records). (2025).

UK vets featuring members of Black Time, Wake Up Dead, Candy Highway and The Jazz June.

“This band is a bit hard to peg down, but has hooks galore!”
MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL

“full dose of fuzzed-out budget punk with trading off female and male vocals. I love this so much!”
RAZORCAKE

“This is really pure stuff, believe me and exactly what the stuff from Memphis taught you, that it is possible to play this ominous punk rock very fucked up and extremely poppy at the same time. The best I’ve heard for a long time and more attention to detail is hardly imaginable despite the noisy minimalism.”
SONIC THREAT

“…something for Crypt Records rockers and Total Punkers, post-hardcore boy/girl basement angst ALA Cupid Car Club circa 1993 live, and music from a label you can trust because Girlsville knows what’s up.”

Jonny Moses, former guitarist in punk legends Menace and London outfit, the Chinese Lungs, is back with more stripped down, high octane rock and roll.

Having left the scene for years of peace and quiet in the wilderness, he’s back with a bang with the talented and uncompromising ensemble that is Johnny Moses & the Electric Motherfuckers.

Built on the furious temperament of Pat Manic Junior’s relentless backbeat, Paul von Paulus grabs the mic on lead vocals and hammers out a pumping bassline for Johnny Moses to lock in with a razor-sharp buzzsaw guitar.

With catchy riffs and raw energy, this is how punk rock is meant to sound, and Johnny Moses & the Electric Motherfuckers are here to show you exactly how it’s done
