HACIENDA ON THE HILL CONCERTS PRESENTS: BLACK DIAMOND RIDERS • BLACK MARKET III & THE RUMBLE • JERRY RANEY & JACK BUTLER
Please join us on Sunday, October 18th, 2026 in Lakeside, CA for a special night of Soul, Blues, and Rock'n Roll! We are beyond excited to bring The Black Diamond Riders to the Hacienda On The Hill!
Southern California’s Black Diamond Riders are a powerhouse blend of classic soul, R&B, blues, and the unmistakable attitude of the SoCal music scene.
The Black Diamond Riders are a Southern California soul “all-star” group with deep roots in the legendary SoCal punk scene. Originally formed by Steve Soto of The Adolescents, the band brought together members of Social Distortion, Cadillac Tramps, U.S. Bombs, T.S.O.L., Manic Hispanic and other Southern California institutions to play the classic soul and R&B that inspired them.
Their music draws heavily from the classic soul tradition, delivering songs associated with artists such as Eddie Floyd, Rufus Thomas, Solomon Burke and many other soul and R&B legends. BDR recreates the feel of a vintage soul revue while bringing the energy and edge of their Southern California roots.
Following founding member and vocalist Steve Soto's passing in 2018 and in honor of him, the Black Diamond Riders continue that tradition with Jesse Wagner of The Aggrolites on lead vocals. Original BDR members Jonny “Two Bags” Wickersham (Social Distortion, Cadillac Tramps) on guitar, Warren Renfro on bass (Cadillac Tramps, Manic Hispanic), Jamie Reidling (U.S. Bombs, Cadillac tramps) on drums and Greg Kuehn (T.S.O.L.) on Hammond organ and keys for the backbone of this power house band!
With their tight 3 piece horn section the result is a full-blown soul revue, built around the music they love: classic Stax, Motown, and Memphis soul. These musicians may have roots in punk, ska, reggae, and rock, but their hearts are firmly committed to the groove. And that's what set them apart!
Black Market III & The Rumble will be bringing the heat with their blend of soul and “border blues”! Scott Blinn (guitar/ vocal), Roxanne Coverdale (bass, vocal), Joe Hager (drums), Alan West (percussion), Kevin Hewitt (B3), John Roy (sax), and Sandi King (back up vocals)
Kicking off the night are two Sand Diego legends, Jerry Raney of the Beat Farmers and Glory, and Jack Butler of Glory!
