The Rip’em Ups are a 1950’s hydrogen bomb stockpile ready to be detonated. Their passion for creating and writing late 50’s rock n roll material is undeniable. This foursome consists of Javier De La Rosa lead vocals/guitar, Rick Coronado original founding member of Lil’ Luis and The Wild Teens on lead guitar, Edgar Villareal double bass extraordinaire, and Santos DeLeon former member of Rip Carsons Twilight Trio on the skins. They are sure to give the 50’s rockin scene a fast fueled rut gut punch of furious energy and primordial savage debauchery. Playing mostly originals they throw in a few choice covers convulsing with raw energy just for kicks. These boys are hell bent on bringing you to your knees, and now they have finally joined forces to bring you the best in late 50’s rock n roll savagery. Their aggressive onslaught of pure raw sound will surely make your toes curl and make you wanna flip your girl.
