🎶 STARCAT ft Slim Jim Phantom, Phil Polecat and Neal X - Esquires Bedford

Prepare yourself for an evening of high-octane rock 'n' roll from 3 of the best as we welcome STARCAT the brand new band ft Slim Jim Phantom, Phil Polecat and Neal X to Esquires for one of their very first shows.
ABOUT
Slim Jim Phantom has secured his place as a true rock-n-roll icon. As the legendary drummer for the Stray Cats, Phantom, alongside band mates Brian Setzer and Lee Rocker, spearheaded the neo-rockabilly movement of the early 80s.
Over 30 years and millions of record sales later and Slim Jim Phantom continues to inspire and excite audiences worldwide. With a sound, style and image that remain as fresh today as they ever were, Phantom has cemented his place among rock royalty. Phil is the bass player of The Polecats. In 1981 they released their debut Lp “Polecats are go” produced by Dave Edmunds a jewel which every fan of the band should have.
REACHING INTO THE TOP 40 IN THE 1980'S
They hit the Top 40 alongside the Stray Cats with their take on Bowie's “John I’m only Dancing”. Neal X is the former guitarist with Electro Glam potentates Sigue Sigue Sputnik. They had a No. 3 UK hit single with "Love Missile F1-11" in 1986. He has worked as a sideman for Marc Almond since the '90s as well as forming "nearly all-girl" rockabilly outfit The Montecristos who released their debut album "Born to Rock 'N' Roll" in 2015.
