Diablo Sandwich Band

About Me

Back around St. Patrick's Day in 1994, the Diablo Sandwich Band made it's inauspicious start as a two piece acoustic act playing in an Irish Tavern. As the band continued to play, and the number of people coming to see the show increased, so did the number of pieces in the band. Adding a bass player, then a drummer, then a keyboard player, and then a sax player. But on the night before Thanksgiving in 1995, the band played a show that changed the direction of the Diablo Sandwich Band for good.For it was at that show that the band first played with a second horn player. And that show was the true beginning of the DSB, because the band would never again play without its signature horn section.Over 12 years later, DSB is still rockin' the bars with no end in sight!
