Rockabilly Ravens
Gauteng
Hailing from an era where Rock ‘n’ Roll was King and pinup girls were Queen, the Rockabiily Ravens bring you a real taste of Rockabilly music. Formed in the Alabama State Penitentiary, inspired by the original Hound Dog and his Jailhouse Rock, the band was originally a front to entertain the guards, while inmates worked on tunneling out of Sing Sing.
The Ravens are a collection of the baddest Rock ‘n’ Rollers who know how to entertain.
After gaining notoriety, they decided to change their names and take the show on the road. Playing every honky-tonk bar in the South, the Ravens developed a reputation as the essential Rockabilly band.
With leather jackets, tattoos and their very own Raven–haired pinup girl, the Rockabiily Ravens get any party started with high energy, up-tempo Rockabilly music. A selection of classic hits and modern anthems bring the Ravens soaring into the 21st century. Rock ‘n’ Roll is alive and well, and in good hands!
The Rockabiily Ravens are a high-quality, star-studded ensemble, featuring Samantha Peo, multiple Naledi Award winner and judge on Strictly Come Dancing, singer Musa Sakupwanya, featured in shows by Nataniel, Martin Rocka, guitarist with Wonderboom and former musical director of Idols, American preliminary Grammy Award nominee John Fresk as the Musical Director, and a horn and rhythm section with formidable experience.
