Tombsone Brawlers Interview

he Tombstone Brawlers, NY/NJ's premier psychobilly outfit, has been kicking ass and taking names since the mid 90s. With influences such as Johnny Burnette, Link Wray, and the Stiff Little Fingers, the Brawlers are not your average bar band. They’ve toured Europe with the Caravans, co-headlined The American Nightmare Festival in L.A. with the Phantom Rockers, and—drum roll please—backed up psychobilly legend and Meteors founder, Nigel Lewis, in his only U.S. appearances to date. Their debut album, "Scary Movies," proved that the Brawlers are definitely a force to be reckoned with. The band’s second full length album, “Meathook Lover,” was released in late Summer of 2006 with a great fan response. Also be on the lookout for “God Save the King,” a psychobilly tribute to Elvis, on which The Tombstone Brawlers will perform “Blue Moon of Kentucky,” featuring Nigel Lewis on vocals. The ferociousness of a live Brawlers performance is worth its weight in bricks. The Tombstone Brawlers are bringing the guts and the grit back to a music scene where punk has become safe and underground has become mainstream. You’ll sweat, you’ll swear, you’ll love them or you’ll hate them, but, at the end of the night you definitely won’t forget them. The Tombstone Brawlers are: Lord Zacher - Vocals/Guitar Johnny "No Keys" - Guitar/ Backing Vocals Peter Paralysis - Upright Bass/ Backing Vocals Chris the Goon - Drums
