Rock Around the Clock - 1950’s Tribute Band

Bio:

I first discovered Nick Palumbo back in Summer of 1996, playing a 1950's car show in New Jersey. Since then I've had the pleasure of doing thousands of gigs with him, first with his big band NICK PALUMBO & THE FLIPPED FEDORAS when he was known as "The Louis Prima of the 90's" during the tremendous revival of swing music; and now with his 1950's Tribute Band, ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK. Nick is a consummate showman and will wow you with his fantastic repertoire ranging from the swing of the 40's to the early rock n roll of Elvis/Jerry Lee/Buddy Holly/Little Richard of the 50's on up to the exciting surf and twist music of the early 1960's. The band is available for all types of gigs - weddings, bar mitzvah's, you name it and we will have your crowd dancing to all your favorite hits including "Great Balls of Fire," "Blue Suede Shoes," "Good Golly Miss Molly" and more!
