More on STRAY CATS
STRAY CATS, the band that put Rockabilly music back on the record charts in the early
1980s, scored several big hits on both sides of the Atlantic thanks to a striking visual 1950’s style brought “up to date” with exaggerated pompadours and colorful tattoos and as well as genuine musical chops that evoked the best players of rockabilly’s original heyday. Formed by guitarist/vocalist Brian Setzer, upright bass player Lee Rocker and drummer Slim Jim
Phantom in the Long Island town of Massapequa, NY in 1979, the trio shared a love for Rockabilly music. After banging around New York for a few months, in the summer of 1980, and
seeing a pompadoured kid on the cover of UK magazine NME, they hopped a plane to London where a rockabilly revival movement was just beginning to emerge. Their massive hits and
videos include “Runaway Boys”, “ Rock This Town”, “Stray Cat Strut” & “(She’s) Sexy + 17” & “I Won’t Stand in Your Way.”
