Bio / Background
Nestled between the big band sound of the early 1940's and the birth of rock and roll in the late 50's, was a style of music that gave way to rhythm and blues. This high energy dance music was created by black artists who were inspired by the pre-war swing era. In turn, these artists were inspirational to the founding fathers of rock and roll, such as Bill Haley and his Comets, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and of course, Elvis Presley. These musicians often credited the jump blues bands of the '40's and '50's as the basis and influence of their sound.
Performing over 150 dates a year for the past 4 years, the Rhythm Rockets bring to the stage the energy and nostalgia of the late 1940's Jump, Swing, Rhythm and Blues bands. This group's show and music have been a favorite to audiences of all ages.
