It’s been a long, long, too long a wait but finally Brian Setzer, Slim Jim Phantom and Lee Rocker will be back down under on their Farewell World Tour.
Formed in 1979 the STRAY CATS took the world by storm with their infectious rockabilly musical stylings and frenetic live shows.
Garnering fans in England helped them achieve chart topping success there first, with the rest of the world quickly following suit and turning on to the greatest rockabilly act of all time.
Having created their own version of the standard rockabilly sound by blending Brian’s jazz & swing sensibilities with the band’s love of the 70’s UK punk sound, the Stray Cats have built up a devoted following and maintained an enviable live reputation throughout their 30 year career.
With Lee Rocker slapping the double bass, Slim Jim pounding rhythm on little more than a bass drum, snare & couple of cymbals and Setzer melding jazz, swing & rockabilly riffs in a majestic display of fretboard mastery, Stray Cats have everything that makes live music great.
Who knew such a stripped back stage set up could bring forth such a monster rock & roll sound?
Currently ripping it up across Europe, the STRAY CATS have rocked the world and are back to rock Australia for one last time on the STRAY CATS Farewell Tour.
Celebrating their longevity, loyalty and love…the STRAY CATS promise to deliver something special
