ABOUT THE BAND

The Regulators are the real deal. These wild eyed southern boys from Southern California play honky tonk, blues-infused, good-time boogie tunes kick started by harmonic layers of gut-bustin' guitars. This Sextet delivers a unique blend of downhome American music. Easy Rider Magazine called The Regulators "the best hard ridin' band since ZZ Top . They are recognized nationwide for their ability to rock the house, whether sharing a stage with Marshall Tucker or Motley Crue. The Regulators have also been seen in the company of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Molly Hatchet, Foghat, Blackfoot, Black Oak Arkansas, Delbert McClinton, Pat Travers band, Blue oyster cult, Ted Nugent, Guess Who, and Great White. Kid Rock accompanied them on stage for a rendition of sweet home Alabama while Pamela Anderson sang back up along side of then Regulators back up vocalist Jessica Tilton. 

 

Nominated several times into the Los Angeles music awards as best hard rock band. They've been voted "Best South Bay Band" two years in a row by Rock City News and given the key to the City of Hawthorne.. The band has weathered much throughout thier career. They've lived through the punk scene and various incarnations of hard rock and heavy metal, all the while remaining true to their unique musical identity. The Regulators use their common background and close relationship to form a rock solid bond with their fans. they believe that people are the money, people are the gold! So that is where their values stand on the knowledge that "yes,  money does grow on trees." they make bills (money) out of paper, that come from trees! BUT, wealth is measured by love and comunication with people. Their brothers and sisters of the whole human race. Writing real working man song's for the working man. "inspiration comes from real life situations" The Regulators are more than the pure power that fills dance floors from the sea to the heartland. The chief example of The Regulators' softer side is the melancholy "Sweet Sustain" homage to former member Jimi Hughes, Randy Smith's brother who passed away in March of 1993.   

 

The band's persistence has paid off well, making them one of the country's best-known biker favorites and an unforgettable addition to any show or soundtrack. Their song "Need for Speed", taken from their eponymous Polydor debut, was featured in the Christian Slater movie "Kuffs" and "Whiskey Fever" was featured in Steven Segal's film "Under Siege." Soundtrack work continues for the popular band with "Last Chance" taken from the Regulators title album, finding it's way onto the soundtrack of "The Girls of Rock Video 3" The Regulators remain a favorite of crowds across the country, a position that has expanded with their second release of "Regulators Bar & Grill." - then third release Above the law, a European release of bar & grill remixed and remastered by band member Randy Smith and includes the bonus track "Leadfoot" 4th release Regulators "Got Smith & Wesson" is currently found only online in digital format as is the new record The Regulators "Now and Forever" a collection of thier greatest hits to be released in early 2015 with a tour to follow!  The Regulators are definitely here to stay. Look for the Regulators this year on tour with Point Blank!
