Dude Cervantes

A firebrand rock & roll guitarist whose music celebrates classic rock sounds with a contemporary fire and energy, Dude Cervantes is the solo alias of Daniel Cervantes. The musician, producer, and label head plays blustery retro-rock with the groups Mrs. Henry (also featuring legendary songwriter Jack Tempchin) and Chest Fever (who play the repertoire of the Band, with the blessings of the group's estate). Stepping out on his own, Dude Cervantes made his debut with 2017's All by Myself, a set of psych-folk and hard rock tracks with Cervantes handling all the instruments. He aimed for a trippy full-band attack on 2023's powerfully lysergic Dreamers, and he showed off what he and his band could do on-stage with 2025's The Ride or Die of Dude Cervantes and the Panchos.
