THE ROUGHNECKS

It didn't take long for THE ROUGHNECKS to become one of Germany's best loved and well known rockabilly bands. Formed in 1985, they toured Europe extensively for the next three years until their split in 1988. A decade later they reformed and released Crash, a critically acclaimed second album. Six years later the demand for the band still remained strong, as a short, sold out European tour at the end of 2004 proved. The release of The Real Deal, a compilation of vinyl only releases from the 80s (alongside other bonus tracks) also confirmed their legendary status.

THE ROUGHNECKS dare to add their own spices to their home made gumbo: blues, country, beat and garage flavour their rockabilly stew. It's rough, ready and raw, rock 'n' roll at its purest and most visceral. Memorably described as Fat Boy Slim meeting Johnny Burnette playing Lee Hazlewood songs whilst jamming with Metallica, these guys have a unique pedigree all their own…
