About Me

Three Blue Teardrops-Cadillac Jack Video-1994Chicago based Three Blue Teardrops formed back in the fall of 1991 playing and helping invent American Psychobilly in the an age when most bands were trying to cash in on the Seattle grunge sound. Three Blue Teardrops were at the forefront of a stateside rockabilly and swing revival with their unique and energetic style. A three piece trio of drums, upright bass and guitar, the band began writing and performing original songs that combined elements of 1970s punk, 1980's Hardcore, gut bucket blues, jungle swing, gospel, garage rock, hillbilly jazz and country harmony to the 1950s style raw rockabilly sounds of our Rock-N-Roll forefathers to create their own contemporary sound that was not stuck in the trappings of rockabilly, psychobilly, punk, blues or any single musical sub genre. The bands appeal (and controversially to some strict rockabilly traditionalists disapproval) was its truly energetic and original genre bending and blurring take on vintage American AND modern musical styles as well as the trios desire to seek out and frequently play on all age musical bills that were non rockabilly, often do things un-retro and do a whole lot more than hold its own against punk, hardcore, ska, heavy metal, alternative and pop bands. This approach introduced and initiated a whole new generation of approving kids into the genre of rockabilly and has spawned countless imitators and influenced bands who were enamored by the trios loud emergence from the good time American roots rockabilly greaser punk cesspool.
