Brian Setzer's Rockabilly Riot at the Wiltern

Brian Setzer’s Rockabilly Riot made its way to the gorgeous Wiltern venue on Feb 27, 2024 . Set amongst the roaring 20s style architecture along with an old theatre look, the Wiltern is the perfect intimate venue for experiencing high quality entertainment and this was no exception. 

Setzer’s guitar work is impeccable on the new album’s 11 tracks, and his vocals deliver the nice storylines of familiar songs like “Black leather jacket,” “The living dead,” and “She’s got a lot of Soul.” Produced by Julian Raymond and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge, the recording process took place in Brian’s adopted hometown of Minneapolis and in Nashville, TN. 

Soaring through a 20 tune set, Brian and his band mates offered some early 80s Stray Cats tunes, but mainly emphasize on a few songs from his incredible new album, The Devil Always Collects. His style of Rockabilly rock/ roll swing revival jump blues was a high-energy opener  which made hard core rockabilly and dedicated Brian Setzer fans get off their feet and swing dance to his jams. 

Brian and his band definitely performed a memorable concert. Brian and his Orchestra most certainly reaches people from all over the world. From young and old, from the U.S to Japan and beyond. You can count on Brian who plays his heart out with a rockin band like he does at every show. If you like Brian and his orchestra, or even a huge fan of the Stray Cats. If you like an energetic good old fashion RockN roll, then ‘The Devil always collects’ is album for you, and definitely an album to go down in rock and roll history.
