Brian Setzer (guitar, vocals), Lee Rocker (bass, vocals) and Slim Jim Phantom (drums, vocals) – original founding members of the iconic and acclaimed American rock and roll trio STRAY CATS – are celebrating their 40th anniversary in 2019 with a new album and tour (*see tour dates below).
Watch the video for Rock It Off here:
Slim Jim Phantom on Rock It Off:
“ROCK IT OFF” MAY BE MY FAVORITE TRACK ON #40 – WHEN THE GUITAR RIFF COMES IN, I STAND UP A LITTLE STRAIGHTER & IMAGINE A PEACOCK STRUTTING – IT’S GOT A SHUFFLE GROOVE THAT’S TAILOR MADE FOR ME TO DO THE BOP-BOP-A-BOP – THE VIDEO CAPTURES THE FUN & GOOD VIBES WE ALL SHARED WHILE MAKING THE WHOLE ALBUM.”
The STRAY CATS have titled the album 40. Marking their first new album in 26 years, it will be released May 24 via Surfdog Records and distributed by Mascot Label Group in Europe and the UK. The song titles alone–including “Cat Fight (Over A Dog Like Me),” “Rock It Off,” “Mean Pickin’ Mama,” and “Devil Train”—instantly let listeners know they’re in for a non-stop rocking time.
