The Brian Setzer Orchestra

Musical Group

An American big-band led by guitarist Brian Setzer, blending swing, rockabilly and jump-blues with large horn arrangements; formed by Setzer after his work with the Stray Cats.

Led by former Stray Cats frontman Brian Setzer, the Brian Setzer Orchestra is known for combining swing and rockabilly with big-band arrangements. The group's recordings include Vavoom and The Dirty Boogie. Reviews note large horn sections (the provided review cites an orchestra with 14 brass instruments and percussionists) and a focus on danceable, retro-tinged performances.

A enthusiastic DeBaser review celebrates The Brian Setzer Orchestra's lively revival of swing and rockabilly. The review highlights Vavoom as a fun, danceable record with big-band arrangements and covers. The band is praised for skill, feeling, and entertainment value. Recommended as party/New Year’s Eve music.

For:Fans of swing, rockabilly, big-band and vintage dance music; listeners looking for energetic, danceable retro sounds.

 Brian Setzer is completely crazy, but I think he is driven by a healthy and good kind of madness.
