The Racketeers

The Racketeers

The Racketeers are a rockabilly and rock and roll group from Boston. They are known for an energetic live show and for a sound built around a strong beat. Their debut EP is released in England, where it brings their music to dance floors and radio airplay in Europe.

Releases and repertoire

The group’s first full-length release follows the debut EP. Its programme includes all-original songs such as “Out for Kicks”, “Rock Shop Hop” and “Clip Joint Tramp”, which reflect an on-the-road, late-night lifestyle. The release also includes smoother songs such as “Walk My Baby Home” and “Hold Me Tight”, showing a range beyond their harder rockabilly material.

Style

The Racketeers’ music centres on high-energy rock and roll and rockabilly, with a focus on rhythm and danceable momentum. Their reputation rests on both their recordings and their stage performances.
