The South Coast of England's favourite 50s-style band, The Catfish Kings pay tribute to their idols like Little Richard, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry or Jerry Lee Lewis. Veterans of many years of touring recording and playing , this is band to set your party ON FIRE!!
Description
Great Balls of Fire! It’s The Catfish Kings..
Dust off your teddy-boy drapes and your flared polka dot skirts; Brylcreem your hair and comb up your beehives! The Catfish Kings are coming to town!
Steeped in the music they grew up with, The Catfish Kings guarantee a night of reelin’, rockin’, hoppin’ and a-boppin’.
If you long to hear full-on versions of Long Tall Sally, Shake Rattle and Roll or Little Queenie, this is the band for you.
Mixed in with some not-so-obvious ‘Fifties classics and a few of their own tunes, the CFK will rock the house till the roof is raised and the
... doors blow back.
Jive, twist, jitterbug or just tap your feet and finger-pop, this is gonna be a night to remember.
