At the dawn of the Eighties, BRIAN SETZER?s rockabilly band the Stray Cats left America for London. Within months, the trio became a sensation throughout the U.K., Europe and Japan. Then came Built For Speed (1982). With three Top 10 hits ("Stray Cat Strut," "Rumble In Brighton" and "Rock This Town"), the album reached #2 on the pop chart and was certified platinum. In Los Angeles in summer 1992, a group of horn players were holding an impromptu jam at his next-door neighbor's house. He joined in with a Gretsch and a small practice amp -- and The Brian Setzer Orchestra was born. The critically acclaimed The Brian Setzer Orchestra (1994), produced by Setzer, was followed by a North American tour that included an extraordinary performance at the Montreal Jazz Festival. Then came 1998's The Dirty Boogie, which sold more than three million copies worldwide (certified double platinum in the U.S., where it reached the Top 10). The album sparked tours of the U.S., Europe and Japan. The BSO also won two Grammys -- for "Jump Jive An' Wail" (Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal) and "Sleepwalk" (Best Pop Instrumental Performance). 2000's Vavoom!, produced by Collins and Glen Ballard, won the Best Pop Instrumental Performance Grammy for the album's rendition of Duke Ellington's "Caravan." The Brian Setzer Orchestra brings its ?Christmas Extravaganza? show to the Paramount Theatre, featuring grand ballroom open floor dancing.
