Charm City Devils

Originating in Baltimore, Maryland, Charm City Devils channel the blues-tinged classic rock approach of icons Aerosmith and AC/DC while shaping their own straightforward hard rock anthems after the style of Buckcherry and Australian outfit Airbourne. Anchored by founding member, lead vocalist, and principal songwriter John Allen alongside Vic Karrera, Anthony Arambula, Nick Kay, and Jason Heiser, the group earned the distinction of being the first signing to Nikki Sixx’s Eleven Seven Music. That partnership yielded the single “Let’s Rock-N-Roll (Endless Road)” and, in May 2009, the full-length album Let’s Rock-N-Roll. Skidd Mills produced their sophomore effort Sins, which surfaced in summer 2012 together with a new single—a cover of the traditional standard “Man of Constant Sorrow.” The band’s third album, Battles, followed in fall 2014.
