SWITCHBLADE!

Hailed as “The World’s Most Dangerous Band” Switchblade is one of DC’s most legendary ensembles. The Band originally came together as The Bad Boys of Tex Rubinowitz fame but soon made a name for themselves with their blend of original hard driving rockabilly and instrumentals. 

Switchblade’s all star line up includes:

Ratso : Lunch with Bob, Kinky Friedman

Eddie Angel: Los Straitjackets, Nick Lowe

Johnny Castle: Thrillbillys, Crank, Nighthawks

Jim Dougherty: Danny Gatton, The Reactions, Billy Hancock

The Rock-A-Sonics play a versatile mix of rockabilly, vintage country, and piano pounding rock ‘n roll. Led by the gifted, young, Willie Barry, they’re the real deal. They perform regularly throughout the Mid-Atlantic and at national rockabilly festivals.

Willie Barry (vocals, acoustic guitar)

Eric Hurtt (electric guitar, vocals)

Louie Newmyer (upright bass, vocals)
