Brian Setzer Orchestra Plan Fall Tour and Special Shows

09/06/2012
. Brian Setzer Orchestra has some special touring plans this fall and winter in support of Setzer's new release, Rockabilly Riot! Live from the Planet.

Setzer will first play a three-night-stint at the Hollywood Bowl beginning September 14th. For the first time ever, the 18-member Brian Setzer Orchestra will unite with the renowned 78-piece Hollywood Bowl Orchestra for an unprecedented musical event.

On November 17th, the Brian Setzer Orchestra will kick off their Christmas Rocks! Extravaganza tour.

Setzer just released "Rockabilly Riot! Live from the Planet" which captures the best songs from Setzer's "Rockabilly Riot!" tour, which included sold-out shows spanning four continents, and is filled with Brian's hits, originals and a few favorite covers. Available for purchase now, "Live from the Planet" is also offered as a limited edition (only 1,000 printed) triple-gatefold colored vinyl record.

The album is an homage to American rock n' roll and it returns him to his rockabilly roots. Setzer is a "Musician's Musician," who consistently takes chances with innovative and daring musical styles. He is widely credited with single-handedly resurrecting two forgotten genres of music, rockabilly in the '80's and swing in the '90's. The band includes two stand-up bassists, two drummers, and a piano player.
