Really sad to see the decline of a great guitarist like Brian Setzer. The Stray Cats were something special in the early '80s and had a big impact on me and a lot of my friends
The Stray Cats have announced the cancellation of their fall United States tour, citing member Brian Setzer‘s “serious illness.” 💔

"When Will We Know" is another great new single from Vancouver's Ben Arsenault, out now on Bandcamp and DSPs via North Country Collective.
This one's got a more '80s bounce, showing off his Randy Travis-level pipes.

"Tainted Love" sounded cool on the radio when I was a kid, but I was never a Soft Cell fan. However, the fact that they had the balls to cover Jimi Hendrix will forever make them aces in my (literal) book. RIP David Ball
