7"Single, 45rpm with printed inner sleeve

First single BILLY RUFFIANS from the forthcoming album will be released on ltd 7inch vinyl and CD-Single on the first week of September 2012

Formed in 1980, THE BLUE CATS released their seminal FIGHT BACK album and single WILD NIGHT in 1981. Their fusion of rockabilly and new wave was, and still is the prime example of what became known as neo]rockabilly.

In the mid 1980s they started working on the G-MEN project and songs that would form the basis of the next stage on their journey, BELTANE FIRE. After a hugely successful year on the alternative London club Circuit, they signed to Sony Music in late 1984 and in 1985 recorded album DIFFERENT BREED.

In 1992 they recorded again as THE BLUE CATS, and the result was the critically acclaimed album THE TUNNEL. They then spent another year on the road together but in 1993 decided to go their separate ways to pursue individual projects.

Early in 2011 Steve Whitehouse was recruited on double bass and the band hit the road again for an extremely successful run of European dates. The huge success of THE BLUE CATS 3rd period is now to be celebrated with a new release on Bluelight Records. Over the last two years or so, the band has been writing together again and now believes they have a collection of the best songs they have ever worked on together.

The first single BILLY RUFFIANS pulled from the album was released on September 7th, 2012.

THE BLUE CATS are:

Clint A. Bradley - voice & guitar

Carlo Edwards - lead guitar

Stef Edwards - drums

Steve Whitehouse - upright bass
