These guys ARE the 1950's!!! They practice in an autobody repair shop, own vintage custom rods, grease up their hair and show how 100% pure rockabilly sounds. Also, this east coast rockabilly band does it with bonk-bonk on the head blues, swing, surf and a country twang which separates them from the pack of "I think I'll cash in on that swing stuff that that guy who used to be in a cool band is now doing and now gets played on clothing commercials on television." The 50's rockers were about attitude, about being different. And different are what make the Gamma Rays special today.
Their debut disc gained praise and is still being scooped up by all purists. The Gamma Rays, Johnny Deware (Vocals, rhthym guitar), Phil Guglielmi (lead guitar), Bob McKenna (big ass bull bass), and Luke Karosi (on the skins), are out of the studio with a new disc "Ride My Rocket". Many new songs are under their belts plus more coming everyday. You can order their debut CD online at http://www.thegammarays.com or at one of their shows! Come to a show and shake your ass!
