Band Returns to Revolution in Long Island, NY for the First Time in 40 Years to Take the Stage for SiriusXM Subscribers
Show kicks off band’s 40th Anniversary U.S. Tour
Special, invitation-only concert, to air on SiriusXM channels: Outlaw Country, Little Steven’s Underground Garage and 1st Wave
SiriusXM announced today that the iconic and acclaimed American rock and roll trio, The Stray Cats, will perform an intimate invitation-only show for SiriusXM subscribers on Friday, August 2 near the band’s hometown of Massapequa, New York on Long Island, where they first formed in 1979. This performance–which will kick-start their much-anticipated 40th anniversary U.S. tour–marks the first time the trio will take the stage at Revolution Bar & Grill for a show after unsuccessfully auditioning at the venue 40 years ago.
“In 1977, we auditioned at the Revolution (formerly Past Times Pub) down the road from our house, and didn’t get the gig,” said The Stray Cats. “Now we’re finally coming back!”
The special performance for SiriusXM will feature The Stray Cats performing fan favorites from their illustrious 40-year career, as well as new songs off the critically acclaimed new album, 40, their first new music in 26 years via Surfdog Records with distribution by BMG.
The band’s original founding members Brian Setzer, Lee Rocker and Slim Jim Phantom will perform this special concert airing on SiriusXM’s Outlaw Country (channel 60), Little Steven’s Underground Garage (channel 21) 1st Wave (channel 33) and on the SiriusXM app.
