About Me

YOUR MAMA'S COOKIN' 1950's Rockabilly / Rock n Roll party. Jive lessons. Fancy frocks. High tea and Glorious cakes. Hard liquor. Shit stompin' soul shakin' music. 50's icon mania. Don't mention Shakin' Stevens.
THANKYOU SOOO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO HAS STUCK WITH US THROUGH ALL THE VENUE CHANGES!
OUR OFFICIAL VENUE FROM NOWON WILL BE TIGER LOUNGE!!!!!!AND WERE BACK ON WEDNESDAY 14TH MAY FOR MORE LINDY HOPPING FUN! Although the Elvis explosion made the rock 'n' roll revolution look like an overnight coup led by one man and a Colonel, the real story begins with seeds, it's flowers leaving more unsung heroes and revolutionaries than any musical form before or since. The seeds were sown by "...Struggling Southern boys with ten dollar guitars and stars in their eyes, combining what they heard on hillbilly radio stations with what they heard on black rhythm and blues stations with what they heard coloured folks singing in the cotton fields and then throwing in a gut-wrenching gospel feel they got when they went to church and heard their fire and brimestone preachers screaming and shouting about salvation..." - Bill Poore, Rockabilly - A Forty-year Story.
