The L.A. Maybe
Heavy rock band, The L.A. Maybe have released their official video for “When I’m Gone” from their debut album, Dirty Damn Tricks. Fronted by lead singer Avi Robinson, who was nearly selected to front the legendary band AC/DC, The L.A. Maybe is a 6-piece rock n’ roll band hailing from the southern heat of the Carolinas.
“In 2015 a close friend of the band committed suicide. While we can’t ever fully erase the pain of such an event, we wrote “When I’m Gone” as a form of therapy and to hopefully inspire others with a message of hope.
This video is our most ambitious effort yet. Filmed over two months, across five beautiful locations around the Southeastern United States, we shot through pouring rain, searing heat and breathtaking scenery.
It was our goal to have the visuals capture and reflect our emotional nature of the song and its meaning. Most of all, it’s a tribute to our friend and we hope it can help others through their own dark moments,” says Dallas Dwight, (Lead guitarist, songwriter)

With scorching, luminous vocals from Avi, this rock ballad is a moving tribute to a lost good friend with deep space for Dwight’s melodic, spot on guitar riffs.
The L.A. Maybe firmly plants its feet at the very forefront of the New Wave of Classic rock movement. Dirty Damn Tricks delivers every bit of the swagger, skill, and kinetic energy that made us all love rock and roll from the beginning and will likely make converts out of new listeners.
Lead vocalist Alvi Robinson (who was one of only four singers to audition to replace Brian Johnson in AC/DC in 2016) lays down gritty, passionate vocals while the rest of the band back him up with slithering riffs, huge catchy hooks, and ripping guitar solos.
Drawing influence from nearly every style of music, The L.A. Maybe puts on an electrifying live show and stand for everything you love about rock music, old and new. You’re sure to have at least one of their choruses stuck in your head at any given moment. Check out their video “Oh Sugar”
