Streetwalkin’ Mofos is the brainchild of filmmaker Danny Garcia and Joe Klenner (Corazones Muertos). While staying in Sao Paulo during the pandemic, Danny and Joe recruited a few local musicians to record a punk rock album of covers that range from The Boys (“Living in the City”) to Black Flag’s “Wasted”, Elvis Presley’s “Burning Love” or Iggy Pop’s “Houston is Hot Tonight”. “It’s basically a collection of some of my favorite tunes since I was a kid’ says Garcia before he adds: “but we tried to include as many collaborations as we could”. So in this album you’ll find the legendary Jayne County & A.M. Taylor (on Iggy’s track), Deadbeat Poets (on Paul Collins Beat’s “Walking Out On Love”), The Only Ones’ John Perry (on “Everyone’s a Fool”), Testors’ Sonny Vincent on “Wasted”, The Jetz (“If That’s What You Really Want”), Alabama 3’s Nick Reynolds (on The Romantics’ classic “What I Like About You”), The Boys’ Matt Dangerfield (“Living in the City”), Kill My Coquette’s Natalie Denise Sperl (“Burning Love”) and Brazil’s Luvbites (on Sylvain Sylvain’s “The Kids Are Back”) and Os Roucos’ (on The Nerves’ “Paper Dolls”). 

“It’s all covers except for “Everyone’s a Fool”, a song that I co-wrote with Darrell Bath back in the mid 90s when we were doing The Crybabys together” says Danny. “We recorded all the tracks in 3 days and sent them to all the participants and they added their parts. It was the best we could do and believe me it’s a trip to have all this amazing artists contribute to our little crazy project” adds the filmmaker/rocker. 
Besides all the aforementioned artists who collaborate on the Streetwalkin’ Mofos debut album, you’ll also find Stiv Bators’ associate Eddy Best on lead Guitar on “Houston is Hot Tonight” plus Guto González and Rodrigo Luminatti (from Os Roucos on drums and bass respectively) and Corazones Muertos’ Jeff Molina on drums among others.
