I love to listen upbeat music while I'm sewing: here's a couple of rockabilly tracks in my playlist for today, enjoy!

Miss Ruby Ann - Baby I Don't Care

I've been really lucky to see her perform live at Route66 festival in Aarburg. She has an amazing voice and a good old-school vibe.

This is her cover of Carl Mann's 1960 hit and I must admit I like her version more.

The Lucky Bullets - Fire Below

Another band I had the pleasure to see live in Aarburg, and what a performance! Rockabilly from Norway, totally kicking. With this track they came 3rd on Norway's selection for Eurovision 2011.

If you get the chance, go see them live. They really put up a great show.

Hillbilly Moon Explosion - My Love For Evermore

If you're more on the psychobilly side, this one is good: I don't listen much psychobilly, but this one got my attention for the noir atmosphere, the contrast between the two voice, the overall mood of the video.

Stray Cats - Fishnet Stockings

I love me some Stray Cats. I won't even start with how good they were, or how I like Setzer's projects. Or what a monster guitarist Brian Setzer is. But IMO the essence of them was the sheer fun they were having: look at them on stage, it's so evident! Also: Slim Jim's antics always crack me.

(Also: awww they were so young in this video! And I was probably 2 years old...)
