Since 2002, Montreal’s ALLEY DUKES have waged a one-band battle against the clichés and stereotypes of the contemporary rockabilly scene. Their bacchanalian brand of debauched rock’n’roll has breathed new life into what has long been perceived as a PG-rated squeaky-clean revisionist genre. You won’t hear any “oldies” covers at an ALLEY DUKES show, no songs about the good ol’ days of drive-ins and sock hops and fishtail Cadillacs, or any references to the antiseptic Leave It To Beaver 1950’s nostalgia timewarp that most contemporary rockabilly bands have come to inhabit. The ALLEY DUKES celebrate the timeless vitality of primal rock’n’roll while restoring its original function: to strike fear and disgust into the hearts of parents and clergymen, and to inspire wild debauchery and superhuman feats of alcohol consumption in their fans ...and that’s exactly why they draw a diverse crowd that isn’t restricted to the narrow confines of the rockabilly scene.
