One Hundred Dollars a Minute

Ernie Johnson From Detroit returns with Vigilante, the band’s highly anticipated fourth studio album and their first release in collaboration with a record label—marking a powerful new chapter in their evolution. The first single, "One Hundred Dollars a Minute" draws its spirit from the hypnotic layered instruments of golden era Fela Kuti and Tony Allen.

Mixed by acclaimed guitarist/producer Eddie Roberts (The New Mastersounds, The Breaks, Color Red), the latest from Ernie Johnson From Detroit captures the band in familiar yet uncharted territory. Granting Roberts full creative latitude, the group embraced a spirit of exploration, resulting in a record that redefines their sonic identity while staying true to their roots. The album surges across genres—moving seamlessly from afrobeat to deep-pocket funk to blistering heavy rock—before circling back again. Through it all, the unmistakable foundation remains: a hard-driving, horn-fueled rhythm section that has become the signature of Ernie Johnson From Detroit’s sound. With Vigilante, the band pushes beyond expectations, delivering a fearless and dynamic listening experience that signals both reinvention and arrival.
