Bill Crittenden & The Sweet Georgia Boys deliver an irresistible collection of melodic, stripped-down Rockabilly, combining first-class musicianship with strong original songwriting and authentic 1950s influences. Featuring Bill Crittenden's warm, expressive vocals alongside the outstanding playing of Mick Wigfall on upright bass and Malcolm Chapman on guitar, Hard Luck Baby captures the timeless appeal of traditional Rock 'n' Roll.
Packed with memorable originals including Hard Luck Baby, For The Heart, Lonely Highway, and A Day In The Life Of Cool Cat Chuck, together with a handful of well-chosen cover versions, the album balances heartfelt ballads with lively Rockabilly rhythms throughout. Fans of artists such as The Bellfuries, Go Cat Go, Paul Ansell and High Noon will feel right at home.
