BAND BIOG : Formed in 2004 , BOB BUTFOY ( BOB & THE BEARCATS ) assembled , PAUL SAUNDERS ( RUSTI STEEL & THE TIN TAX ) , TOM HAYES ( ROCKET 88 ) & NICK LINTON-SMITH ( JUMP CAT JUMP )with a plan to bring his own self styled " sleaze a billy " to the rockin scene & beyond !! gigs started to come in & it wasn't long before Bob had contacted ALAN WILSON of THE WESTERN STAR RECORDING CO . Bob & Alan struck up a friendship & Alan quickly snapped up JACK RABBIT SLIM for their 1st album . AUGUST 2005 saw the release of " SIN-U-ENDO ! " which included 11 Bob Butfoy originals , with a launch party at THE ACE CAFE a few months later . following a support role to BIG SANDY & THE FLYRITE BOYS the band's profile was raised ...more top gigs were to follow : HILLBILLY HOP , VIRGINIA CREEPERS , EDDIE COCHRAN FEST , BRIGHTON RUMBLE , HOLLAND , BELGIUM , THE HOT ROD HAYRIDE , FRANCE , DINGWALLS , HEMSBY , MADAME JOJO'S & THE RED ROSE to name a few ! 2007 saw the release of the band's 2nd album " SLEAZE A BILLY ! " which again featured 11 butfoy originals , just in time for the band's acclaimed appearance at VIVA LAS VEGAS ! Upon returning from Las Vegas the band had a line up change , featuring on guitar " LITTLE " JOSH ( KICK EM JENNY ) & LANDON FILER ( THE STATESIDE SLIDERS ) on double bass , jack rabbit slim's momentum became even greater , with airplay on BBC RADIO 2 & top gigs all over the world. Jan 08 saw the departure of josh , whose position on lead guitar was filled by DARREN LINCE ( EX SUGAR CREEK TRIO ) . Darren & Bob had previously worked together when Bob fronted the sugar creek trio in conjuction with JRS in the early part of 2006 , they had also planned a band together just prior to the beginning of JRS which never got off the ground , so finally these 2 cats have got it together !!! JRS' 3rd album " FROM THE WAIST DOWN " elevated them even more than ever , winning them the coveted title " album of the year " voted by readers of viva le punk .The mix of mainly Bob butfoy compositions with a couple of selected covers/re-works did the trick once more , with rave reviews from the rockin press . The shows keep coming , getting bigger & better all the time ...the guys are currently working on their next Western Star release due out late 2009 / early 2010 !! Watch this space !! TOP GIGS INCLUDE .... VLV USA, UK ROCKABILLY RAVE , SIN CITY UK , US ROCKABILLY RAVE , HOT ROD HAYRIDE UK ,BREMEN GERMANY , HIGH ROCKABILLY SPAIN , HEMSBY UK , D-DAY AMSTERDAM , AMERICANA UK , SCREAMIN SPAIN , ROCK N SOUL UK , BOOZE BROADS & HOT RODS SAN FRANSICO , SHAKEDOWN UK , LAKE RATTLE N ROLL SWITZ , ROCKABILLY BOOGIE UK ,SPIKES L.A , DINGWALLS UK , LOUD MUFFLERS PARIS , ACE CAFE UK , HAMBURG GERMANY , DRIVE IN BARN BELGIUM , MADAME JOJOS UK , WALLDORF GERMANY , SPIDERS WEB SCOTLAND ,PUKA BAR L.A , BOSTON ARMS UK , TATTOO FEST BRIGHTON UK , BRANDENBURG GERMANY , CREAM REVUE UK ...& MANY MORE !

Fantastic gig last night although I thought you were going to decapitate Darren at one stage as the stage was so small.

Took my camera & took 25 photo's & unless all of your faces are blurred....my camera is cack. Couldn't believe it, I drove back the 60 miles or so - got on the PC and every single photo shite.

Didn't go much on the burlesque & when the first one dislodged the pole I didn't bother watching much afterwards.

Brilliant gig & I hope to travel to Leicester for the all dayer, having a back op in a couple of weeks & told I should be ok within 2-3 weeks afterwards.

Would've said Hi but never got within range. I was the fat annoying bloke near the front of the stage snapping away.

Looking forward to the next album

Cheers

Gary
