Johnny Dilks and his Country Soul Brothers

About Me

We are just a bunch of guys from the San Francisco Bay area playing the music we love...classic country and honky tonk. We are probably too old fashioned to fit into the modern country scene but also too down to earth to care. We're just playing and writing songs about our lives and we're doing it the only way we know how...sincerely, honestly and from our hearts and souls.
Dave Gleason plays B-bender Telecaster and sings harmony with more soul than most you'll find...he's known to drink a little too much wine sometimes and he's a hell of a nice guy.
Dave Zirbel plays the pedal steel guitar and he's also one of the most honest and nicest dudes you'll ever meet....not mention one of the most in tune and bitchin steel players in California.
Steve Walz is a solid bass player and has more business sense than anyone else in the band and he'll tell you things like they are...whether you like it or not....he's earned his respect and deserves it.
Ken Owen is our rock solid drummer.
