Billy Alton & the Streamliners, Kentucky Chrome and Rockabilly Strangers
It's a psychobilly freakout!
Billy Alton & the Streamliners headline with out-of-this-world vocals. Fold your cigarettes into your sleeve, pomade the hair and swing-rock the night away. Alton, formerly of the Starlight Drifters, also leads Kentucky Chrome, a five-piece pedal to the metal rockabilly outfit.
Kentucky Chrome specializes in songs of booze, heartache, hot-rods and the occasional redemption of a lost soul?and we would expect nothing less!
Rockabilly Strangers are a brand new band that has only one mission: rock out the best rockabilly music from the past, present, and future. Dig it!

The Zistafones, the Cut Loose and Philo-San!
Rock'n'roll the way it shoulder be on March 8th!
If you enjoy a retro sound with beautiful harmonies, unconventional guitar leads, an all-over-the-place rhythm section, and super high energy, you are bound to fall in love.
The Cut Loose are straight outta the garage; Detroit sound through and through.
Phil-San are a poppy combination of swing, reggae, rockabilly and surf, Philo-san (fye-low sahn) has created a unique sound that is redefining "Detroit Rock." Hailing from suburban Detroit, this distinctive trio combines catchy melodies, quirky guitar licks, funky bass lines, and versatile drumming to form a retro-rock sound that is much bigger than the sum of its parts.
We have donated 5 sets of tickets for the Exposure Detroit show tonight at the Bean and Leaf Cafe in Royal Oak for auction or raffle to help this great group of 700+ members continue to puton shows and display the many talented photographers here in the motorcity!Amp Fiddler - The Slits - Robert Cray Band - The Black Keys - Global Thursdays at AANM
