Beautiful Delilahs

Founded in 2016 by Steve Schecter and Trey Robles.  

Guitarist Steve Schecter, drummer Trey Robles, and their two bassists, Brandon Gonzales and Nick Moulos, all originally crossed paths in the late '90s when post-punk, sleaze-rock, rockabilly and blues collided on the sidewalks, and in the alleys, of downtown Austin. Two decades and more than a few bands later, the friends came together as Beautiful Delilahs, with a shared vision of rock 'n' roll and an approach to playing it with the intensity ubiquitous to the music of their generation.

Devastatingly, Trey Robles passed in October 2021. Beautiful Delilah left behind an EP, Demons Take Over/Kill 'em on a Saturday Night, and their debut album The Reason Why, both now serves as commemoration of Trey's outstanding musicianship and mark the final efforts of the enormous body of work he left behind, from the Young Losers, to Hard Feelings, Big Foot Chester, and many more.  

Thank you for the Rock 'n' Roll, Trey. Rest in peace.

From Paste Magazine: 

Three Texan rock lifers—singer/guitarist Steve Schecter, bassist Nick Moulos and drummer Trey Robles—have joined forces as Beautiful Delilahs, a nasty outfit that takes the hormonal oomph of rockabilly and R&B and greasy garage rock with a chaser of early country. It’s a resilient sound that has survived for seven decades now with new enthusiasts taking up the mantle every year. But what those other acts are missing is Schecter. The long, lean frontman attacks each song on this fast moving set with a shredded growl and a withering shout. The sweat and fury and elation he exudes throughout feels as though it has seeped into every moment of this debut full-length, and the crack rhythm section only urges him to give more and more and more.
