Gutterboy New York City Hardcore Rock Boy Band 1980s-90s Music Press Photo

Before he was an acclaimed novelist and Hollywood director, Dito Montiel led the band Gutterboy. Signed by Geffen in the late ‘80s, the band was put together with various recruits from NYC hardcore bands. Gutterboy was a good-looking macho sort of group that looked like they belonged on the runway and not onstage. Consequently, the pretty boy schtick didn’t sell and the guys were dumped. Several members left, but the band somehow scored another major label deal and went to work on their second self-titled album. By this time, they had added a female member on acoustic guitar and vocals and had salvaged several songs from their departed members in order to have enough material.
