.. The Toreadors Trio is a Rock and Roll/Rockabilly band from Hellsinki, Finland. The band was formed in fall 2008 and played gigs in 2009 mostly on festivals and rock and roll events in Finland. The members have their mixture of influences in roots music that creates our sound. It sounds like fresh new rockabilly with a vintage touch and a Teddy Boy attitude. The current line up has been active since fall 2009. The members of The Toreadors Trio have been playing in bands for over 3 decades. Currently we are rehearsing for a gig in January 2010 in Hellsinki to back up for the rockabilly legend, Mick Lewis (UK) the orginal guitarist and songwriter of the rockabilly band Whirlwind. Thanks for your support and keep on rockin...
