Demon Wrangler is a spiritual psych rock band from Sacramento, California. Known for their energetic and super physical live performances, ferocious and dynamic musicality, and mind boggling spiritually charged lyrics, Demon Wrangler both embodies and redefines the rock & roll genre, having been described by the press as, "...the Salvation Mountain guy fronting The Stooges” who make music that sounds like “...if a church band who like AC/DC all decided to drop acid before Sunday service." Demon Wrangler’s wild eyed shamanic rock icaros provide salvation for even the most jaded rock & roll fans.
Born from the underground into an era of disorder, where harmony is dissonant and resolution remains out of reach, Franky Fox emerges from a self-imposed silence with a singular realization: the time has come to return to the stage.

After watching his previous band wilt away, Fox retreated behind the glass of the industry’s most respected recording studios. What followed were years of developing his ears as an engineer and producer. Working on other artist’s music, he continued honing his skills, earning a Grammy along the way. Yet for all the success found in the control room, something essential was missing.

Watching his hometown of Los Angeles go from being a thriving haven for live music into a declining western civilization, Fox found himself drawn back to his roots, writing songs reminiscent of Deerhunter, The Beach Boys, and the Elephant 6 Recording Company. As the songs began to multiply, Fox assembled a band of lifelong friends and named it Prefix.

More than a band, Prefix is the sound of a musician stepping back into the unknown. Sharpened by experience and driven by loss. Prefix have arrived with one question:

What if The Beach Boys were scary?
Los Vampis is a band from Sacramento, California, formed in the summer of 2024. Brought together by their love for rock en español, they started as friends and evolved into a band with a sound of their own. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of influences—from twee and jangle pop to tontipop, post-punk, punk, and even the romantic stylings of José José—Los Vampis create music that’s vibrant, melodic, and uniquely theirs.
