Another big name in international music will be making a stop at the 10 Giorni Suonati at the Vigevano Castle: former Stray Cats Brian Setzer, authentic leader of the rockabilly scene, brings his Rockabilly Riot project on tour in Europe. Vigevano will be the only date in Italy.
The last memorable Stray Cats concert took place in August 2008 at the Summer Jamboree in Senigallia. After the dissolution of the rockabilly band par excellence, Brian Setzer took over his various solo projects, such as the Brian Setzer Orchestra, his adventure with The Nashvillains and, finally, Rockabilly Riot, with which he recorded "A Tribute to Sun Records" in 2005.
His return to Italy is a real event for the rockabilly community, which has seen a sharp increase in membership and visibility in recent years. The Vigevano concert promises to be a great gathering of pin-ups and rockers from every corner of our country, for what will be not only a simple musical event but above all a cultural and folkloristic happening.
What will make Setzer's tour even more unique will be the presence of the legendary drummer Slim Jim Phantom, with whom Brian will perform a musical interlude that will obviously include some songs from the repertoire of their mother band, the Stray Cats.
Vigevano will be a real Rockabilly party: for the occasion, the Castello Sforzesco will be transformed into Italy's coolest "Rockabilly Village".
The day will begin at 6 pm with a performance by four splendid realities of rockabilly made in Italy: Rock & Roll Kamikazes, Adels, The Dragons, The Giubocs boys. Between one performance and the next, DJ Tano Brillantina will make the audience dance.
