Boston Rockabilly, as the name implies, is based on the music of the great Rock and Roll artists of the 50's and early 60's. Our inspiration has always been the music of Elvis, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, Rick Nelson, Buddy Holly, and many others of that era in which we grew up. (If that gives away our age, we're okay with that!)

The band was formed back in 1979 during a time when a wave of nostalgia was sweeping the country, and the interest in roots Rock 'n Roll and Rockabilly was re-emerging. Pianist Vic Layne came together with Bassist John Tate to attempt to recreate the original "Sun" sound from the legendary Sam Phillips studio. Although we have remained true to our roots, we have also expanded and broadened our musical base to include material that we hope will be enjoyed by young and old alike.

We believe that in performing our music with energy and enthusiasm, we help keep alive a genre that is all too often ignored in today's music scene. Unlike many other so-called "Oldies Bands", we don't "toy" with the music.
We play it with sincerity, authenticity, but also with a great sense of fun and enjoyment. In other words, WE ROCK!!
