Rockabilly Boogie Pt.1
Celebrate a night of Jive, Bop & Rock and at the Historic Cafe Du Nord, built in 1907, dress your 1950s best at this once notorious speakeasy during the Prohibition era.
Take cover, it's TEXAS STEVE & THE TORNADOS!! Based out of the San Francisco Bay area, these WILD RECORDS recording artists deliver their own brand of feverish sounds rooted in traditional 1950's rockabilly, frantic rock n’ roll and hillbilly bop. Texas Steve and the boys will keep you dancing, drinking and screaming for more!!
At once embrace and redefine the Rockabilly genre. Singer Johanna Sorrentino, guitarist Benjamin Hudson, doghouse bass slapper Roxane Chicoine, and drummer Eden "Heart Attack" Uscilowski weave together their collective passions for Rockabilly, Psychobilly, Country, Blues, Surf and Soul — bringing a fresh approach and a bold sound to the San Francisco Bay Area's music scene.
