Left Alone - Left Alone


Left Alone is a punk rock/Street Punk band from Wilmington, California. They
were formed in May 1996 by lead vocalist/guitarist Elvis Cortez. Cortez
formed his own label, Smelvis Records, to release Left Alone s records, and
has since expanded the label to include numerous other underground bands
Cortez was also the owner of the PCH Club in Wilmington, which is now
defunct. Left Alone s music has ska influences, and the band is notable for
adhering to a do it yourself ethic, by avoiding major labels, booking their
own tours, and making their own merchandise

After releasing numerous demos, splits, and EPs, Left Alone released their
first full-length, Streets of Wilmington, in 2002. A year later, the band
compiled their earlier, out-of-print recordings on the anthology Left Alone:
1996-2000. In 2003, Cortez went on the Warped Tour as a roadie. After Warped
Tour founder Kevin Lyman heard Left Alone s music, he chose the band to be
the Warped Tour BBQ band for the 2004 tour. The band were invited back to be
the BBQ band for the 2005 tour. While on the Warped Tour, Tim Armstrong of
Rancid heard Left Alone s 2004 album, Lonely Starts & Broken Hearts
Armstrong signed the band to his label, Hellcat Records, and re-released
Lonely Starts & Broken Hearts. The band released their third full-length
album, Dead American Radio, on August 8, 2006, which features guest
appearances from Tim Armstrong and Patricia Day of the Horrorpops.
