Taking a cue from bluesy classic rock icons like Aerosmith and AC/DC, Baltimore, Maryland's Charm City Devils craft traditional hard rock anthems in the vein of Buckcherry and Aussie rockers Airbourne. The band, featuring founding member/vocalist/songwriter John Allen, Vic Karrera, Anthony Arambula, Nick Kay, and Jason Heiser, was the first act to sign with Nikki Sixx's Eleven Seven Music, resulting in the release of the single "Let's Rock-N-Roll (Endless Road)," followed by the full-length Let's Rock-N-Roll in May 2009. Their second album, the Skidd Mills-produced Sins, arrived in the summer of 2012, along with a new single, a cover of the traditional classic "Man of Constant Sorrow." Their third album, Battles, was released in the fall of 2014. ~ James Christopher Monger
