King Salami & the Cumberland Three, London’s greatest rhythm’n’blues beat sensation, return with their 50s & 60s-influenced wild and crazy sounds. The King howls and growls like Screamin’ Jay greased up with Andre Williams’ ‘Bacon Fat’. He never stops twistin’ and a-movin’ while his wurst men bash out vintage rock’n’roll with a li’l bit o’ soul to boot. Plus, from Japan, the youthful crooner Nao-kun and The Stompin’ Riff Raffs, his band of masked, glittering, shimmying banditas ripping it up with 50s surf’n’roll and 60s frat rock. Spilling drinks and dancing on tables is compulsory.
