These five childhood friends hail from Lake Jackson, Texas. They grew up on a steady diet of rock and 80's glam metal. Eric, Lance and Kyle were in a garage band together in high school called "InAsense". Mark and Joey were founding member of the band "Rokitt". All five moved away from Lake Jackson after high school to start families and careers. Mark fronted many metal bands in Austin, then switched to country, which led to a small stint in Nashville. Kyle kept drumming through out the years too. In the summer of 2008, Kyle, Lance and Eric went to the South Texas Rock Fest to relive some old memories of the music they grew up with. They had such a great time they decided to schedule a weekend to record some songs. Mark quickly agreed to be a part of the project. So they met up in Boerne, Texas at Eric's home studio on the weekend of Dec. 12-14. We all caught up with Joey in June of 2014 and welcomed him back into the fold.

The Dirty Unkuls (the name and concept came from Lance when Hurricane Dolly decided to park over Lance's house and he had a lot of time to think. Lack of electricity will do that to you.) is a band strictly for fun, nothing more or less. We have accomplished to write, record and prepare for release 10 originals. So far you have heard the first - "She Likes It Dirty" and last week saw the release of "Rio Grande". The plan is to continue releasing the remainder of those 10 songs at a pace of about one a month. All the while, we continue to write more originals.

Do you think these guys are having fun? That's what rock and roll is all about baby! Thanks for stopping by and please leave us your comments!
