KILLER HEARTS BAND BIO

Killer Hearts are a blood-soaked, leather clad, electrifying Rock N Roll band based out of Houston, Texas. Formed in 2015 and led by brothers Brandon Barger on guitar and Jerrie Boy Barger on vocals, Killer Hearts have been spreading their Southern Sleaze all over the US for the better part of the last decade.
 

Starting out as a punk/psych/garage band called The Wrong Ones, the Barger brothers have been playing music together for 20 years. Brandon Barger has also been the lead guitarist for Heavy Metal band, Night Cobra since 2019 and has played guitar for many other Texas punk, Rock N Roll and Metal bands like The Guillotines, The Cops, BBQT, Denim Demons, Leather Church, Die Fast and Liberty & Justice.

Drawing influences from the proto-punk and early Glam Rock of the 70's while adding in some riffage and guitar work reminiscent of early heavy metal, and NWOBHM, Killer Hearts' sound is a sonic explosion of intensity, disparity and pure Rock N Roll rawness.

Throughout some line-up changes over the years, the Barger brothers have remained as the core song writers of the band, and have now cemented a solid line-up with Domokos Benzcedi (Future Blondes, Rusted Shut) on bass and Hector Tenario (Wülfsköl, The Takes) on drums and are ready to hit the road again. The new full length album, "Unchained & Bloodstained" due to be released on Screaming Crow Records on October 24, 2025, contains 10 tracks of the hardest, bloodiest, nastiest, darkest, heart-breaking Rock N Roll Killer Hearts have offered up to date.   

The band looks forward to seeing and talking to everyone on the road this fall!
