The McCharmlys are a five-piece combo from Santa Ana, Calif., currently taking the scene by storm with their stylish blend of doo-wop, surf, beat & 60s style rock 'n' roll. LA Weekly called the band "an absolute joy" as they "recall sounds from the past while adding a contemporary edge that is attractive to punk, new wave and rockabilly fans."

Taking their name from an obscure Beatles interview, the band was assembled by band leader & primary songwriter Angie Monroy in 2018, carefully selecting key players from the Santa Ana scene. Monroy writes music every day, with influences ranging from The Ramones, Roy Orbison & The Beach Boys. The band's lush sound is rounded out by layered harmonies & instrumentation that has captivated audiences on stage alongside The Delta Bombers, Josie Cotton, Slim Jim Phantom, Los Yesterdays & more. The self-titled debut album is streaming now, vinyl in stores worldwide September 15, 2023 from Nu-Tone.
