Setzer’s ain’t messing around this time, bringing an all-out rockabilly attack of two (yes, two) stand-up slappin’ double-bassists and two (yes, two) drummers, including Stray Cats bandmate Slim Jim Phantom, and a pianist.

The sets will include his hits, choice covers, and an extra-special selection of Stray Cats classics with Slim Jim.

In addition to this, Setzer has just released his first all-instrumental album on Surfdog Records, called Setzer Goes Instru-MENTAL.
