The Barnestormers

An allstar combo featuring Jimmy Barnes, Jools Holland, Chris Cheney, Slim Jim Phantom & Kevin Shirley!

What you have right here is rockabilly royalty. They're global allstars who swing like a gate. They make the finest, finger poppin' grooves to shake your local juke joint since the glory days of fenders and fins. Hold tight kiddo.

Flip your lid for each of them now …. pounding the ivories is East End boogie-woogie dice slinger, and UK music legend, Jools Holland. In the red corner, on sticks, skins and steel, from the City Of Angels via Brooklyn, it's the signature Stray Cat backbeat of Slim Jim Phantom. In the blue corner, from Melbourne, slinging his hollow body Gretsch low and drawing quick - Chris Cheney from the Living End. Who's the ringmaster for all this? Studio daddy-o, Kevin "Caveman" Shirley on the flying faders. And last, but definitely not least, wearing the championship belt of 20 number one albums, on vocals, the storming heart and soul of Australian rock'n'roll … Jimmy Barnes.

They're spread across three continents but they're all coming from the same place. Crazy right? They're kids who grew up as greasers, listening to real gone 45's with a whole lotta shakin' goin' on. It took The Big Flu to bring them together. "Hey, while we're all stuck inside let's bake a biscuit about cuttin' loose", said the Caveman …. and so they did.
