ABOUT

Rhoades D'Ablo has been a mainstay in the underground, indie rock and alt. country scene for many years. From the psychobilly rumble of Mustang Lightning, to the goth-tinged rebellion of Rock City Morgue and DAX, the psychedelic musing of The Buddy LuvCult to the Texas Outlaw spirit of Rhoades D'Ablo and the Devil's Right Hand and Matt Begley and Bitter Whiskey, D'Ablo has lent his special touch to so many projects and bands.

A pioneer of punk, country, and gothic madness, a troubador of metal and pop......a true free spirit of rock and roll.
