The High Rollers are crazy about red-hot, swingin' hillbilly jazz and traditional rockabilly - and once you've heard these cats, you will be too! If you're a fan of 50s style rockin' music, this is the band for you... these boys really jump and swing - and whether you like to dance or just soak it up, you're sure in for a treat!
Live at The Mustang Bar, Perth
Performing "Shotgun Boogie"
Featuring some of Perth's most experienced musicians, this five piece band blends the vocal talents of Andy Burnaway (Convertibles, Rhythm Aces), the dynamic jazzy duo of John Short (Peter Busher's Lone Rangers) on steel and Andy "Jumpin' Jack" Jarvis (Salt Flat Trio, Tornado Alleycats) on guitar, and our swingin' rhythm section - Phil Morgan on double bass and Brian Booy on drums (both also Lone Rangers). If you're lucky, you may also catch the dynamite Lil Miss Coo (Rocket to Memphis' lead singer) gracing us with her sultry vocals!
Remember, it sure ain't got that thing, if if don't swing!
Live at Deville's, Perth - benefit gig for Joy Jacob 10th July 2008
Performing the Collins Kids' Hop Skip & a Jump, with Lil Miss Bennett
Thank you to Celia & Josef for these two live clips of the High Rollers. Please visit their great web site Perth Rocks
If you're in Perth, come catch the HHRKs tearing it up live (check the gig list above for details) and be sure to come and say hi. The band will also be performing at Wintersun this year, on Sat 6th and Sun 7th, to unveil their new CD "The Swingin' Sounds Of The West". We also have a live CD, recorded at the Mustang Bar by our good buddy Mark Gordon.
The High Rollin' Rhythm Kings want to say a big thank you to ARRAS for their passion and support of the sounds we all love - Rock n Roll, in all it's wonderful variations: from old time Western Swing, jumpin' R&B and Rockabilly - to today's bands who are doin' it right. Keep the faith cats and kittens!!
