About Me

Diablo Dimes is Blues, Americana, Ragtime, Boogie Woogie, Dixieland, Rock n' Roll... A ramblin' minstrel. He can put ya' in a swanky Paris whorehouse in the 1920's, or a shady jumpin' juke joint of the 1950's Southside of Chicago!Self described as "Honkytonk, hooked, hop, hophead heebies, and a full orchestration at a barrelhouse"... It's no wonder one raves about his unique sound and memorable performances, like no other.Dimes has played extensively from coast to coast, like butter n' toast, for all types of audiences. From the House of Blues in New Orleans, the Viper Room in L.A., Slim's in San Fran, CBGB's & Joe's Pub in N.Y.... not to mention plenty of lowdown dives in between.....
