	Brian Setzer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brian Setzer (born April 10, 1959 in Massapequa, Long Island, New York) is an American guitarist, singer and songwriter.
		Brian Setzer also recorded some solo albums during Stray Cats' break in the 1980s along with some in the 1990s.
		Brian recently moved from Southern California to Minneapolis, Minnesota with his wife Julie (nee Reiten, former singer with the Dustbunnies), whom he originally met when she auditioned (and was hired) as a back-up singer for the Brian Setzer Orchestra in 1999.

		Brian Setzer, late of the 1980s band Stray Cats, has come up with some great 1950s big-band sounds on "The Brian Setzer Orchestra." He takes a 19-piece band--complete with saxophones, trumpets, piano, great drums, and everything else--and adds in electric guitar.
		Setzer's surprisingly jaunty version of "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square" is a genuine treat--I'd only ever heard this song done in a sort of mournful, yearning way, but he turns it into an upbeat delight.
		Setzer wrote nearly half the music that appears on this album, and he's nearly as good with a pen as he is with a guitar.

	Thunderstruck
		Nevertheless, Setzer captured the imagination of the freshman class of the emerging MTV generation with his peroxide pompadour, pleated baggies, patent leather Creepers, and his 1959 Gretsch guitar strapped over his leather clad shoulder.
		When the Brian Setzer Orchestra launched in the early 1990s, the music scene was captivated by grunge acts such as Pearl Jam and the gansta rap of Dr. Dre.
		Setzer’s hipster big-band sound (and his fetching back-up singers) caught on and his sold-out shows became one of the hottest tickets in town.

	BRIAN SETZER-
		Setzer acknowledges that his taste in recording gear and methods runs to the retro over the modern.
		Setzer and his bandmates used charts created by the guitarist and trombonist/arranger Mark Jones; the duo have been doing this for the past eight years.
		Following the initial recording of all the tracks, Setzer's label felt that the first single, "In the Mood," should be turned into a vocal number, so the guitarist went to work with Grammy- and TEC Award-winning producer Glen Ballard.

		Essentially, this is the Stray Cats re-born, except that Setzer has narrowed his lyric concerns down to hot-rodding and all its attendant delights.
		Setzer comes across as a man who was born twenty years too late, genuinely loves what he's doing and gives not a hoot whether it's fashionable.
		Setzer seems to lack the feel and love for this style that were so evident during his days with the Cats.

		At sixteen, after years of jazz guitar lessons, Brian Setzer was doing a solo gig as the Rockabilly Rebel, which eventually expanded to incorporate other musicians.
		For a brief period Setzer played concurrently to the Stray Cats in a new wave band called the Bloodless Pharaoahs.
		Setzer prances the stage wearing skintight leather pants, an open-at-the-neck tuxedo shirt with ruffles edged in fl and a metallic blue jacket.

		Before Brian Setzer revived jump blues and swinging boogie music with his well-known eponymous orchestra, the guitarist was known to the world as the frontman of stripped-down rockabilly trio the Stray Cats.
		Setzer revisited demos of those songs in the fall and decided that he wanted to play them in a trio.
		Setzer enjoyed it so much he decided to record the songs and tour in the summer, the spokesperson said.

		Brian Setzer may have been vilified by purists and progressives for daring to "modernize" rockabilly and swing, but the pompadoured Long Islander has now laughed all the way to the bank twice at their expense--and in two different decades, no less.
		But as he's admitted, Setzer's a rockabilly writer/guitarist by nature, a notion reinforced here by his own tunes and a flashy take on the instrumental "Caravan." His band charts are both serviceable and modern, but might benefit from a different arranger's perspective.
		Brian Setzer sounded so great on his previous cd to this one "The Dirty Boogie" how could he have gone so downhill.

	Fender Players Club - Brian Setzer
		Born in New York City and raised in Long Island, Brian Setzer started forming rockabilly acts such as his Bloodless Pharaohs in the late '70s, finally putting together the Stray Cats (then known as the Tom Cats) in 1978.
		Solo-wise, Setzer released Live Nude Guitars in 1988, but it was several years later that he put together a 17-piece orchestra in the style of the old big bands and began to play classic swing with the Brian Setzer Orchestra, releasing their self-titled first album in 1994.
		Whether performing with the Orchestra or the more stripped-down Brian Setzer Trio, he has developed a reputation as the hard-rocking king of swing with jazzy rockabilly, country and blues chops that just keep getting better with age.

	Brian Setzer - Nitro Burnin' Funny Daddy - Surfdog Records - CD
		The last few years have been happily productive for Brian Setzer fans - the big band albums, Christmas album, numerous TV appearances; even going back to the sparse, three-piece format that brought him his initial fame in the 80’s by forming the ’68 Comeback Special.
		Now with new bassist, Johnny ‘Spaz’ Hatton in tow, The Brian Setzer Trio (as they are officially called despite the album being credited to Setzer alone) have unleashed their high-octane debut Nitro Burnin’ Funny Daddy.
		While there are some similarities to his past, The Brian Setzer Trio are not The Stray Cats Mark 3 but a group that reaches farther into the musical landscape of American popular music than the genre of ‘rockabilly’ could allow.

	Steve Beard on Brian Setzer on National Review Online
		In December, Setzer and his orchestra were booked for seven national TV appearances in the three weeks prior to Christmas-even performing at the tree lighting ceremony at Rockefeller Center in New York City.
		With the death of Strummer, as well as that of Joey Ramone, Setzer began thinking more about mortality and the brevity of life, figuring that hard-living rock 'n' rollers were only given about 60 years before they met their Maker.
		In addition to the standard rockabilly formula of whiskey, hotrods, and stiletto-heeled women, Setzer daringly touches upon his spiritual underpinnings on the song "St. Jude" — a prayerful meditation to the patron saint of the impossible, lost causes, and the doomed.

	Brian Setzer : The Brian Setzer Orchestra - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Setzer and his 17-piece band strut through a set of standards and originals, all featuring his growling guitar and vocals.
		The disc kicks off in high gear with screeching trumpet and a quintet of sweet saxes before Setzer fills up the room with the originals "Lady Luck" and "Ball and Chain." Both feature witty lyrics that recall the smoke-filled bars and dance halls of the '40s and '50s while still sounding contemporary.
		That's the trick Setzer maintains throughout the whole record: the style references Louis Jordan and Louis Prima through Count Basie and Henry Mancini, but the band is powerful and tight as a drum.

	Ink 19 :: The Brian Setzer Orchestra
		Setzer and a female lead vocalist who mesmerized the crowd with her beautiful voice and tight shirt, these kids were really very impressive.
		From there, the energy level would only increase as the band powerfully belted out song after song, Brian ran around playing his guitar while sliding on his knees, and the four trumpet players in the back row performed their synchronized sit-down-dances.
		The ticket price is a little hefty, the paraphernalia's price is just as ridiculous, and the "neo-swing syndrome" is bound to kick in; but it's truly worthwhile when those curtains rise and you realize what you've been missing by living in the '90s.
