THE CHOP TOPS
After 10 years of retirement, they are back…
Sometimes They Come Back, and this time it’s with a red-hot reunion album Fabrikate! This final 7th addition to The Chop Tops discography covers a lot of musical ground in the genre-blurring style they’re known for. Features tracks ranging from; Spaghetti Western and Santa Cruz Surf Instrumentals, Bluegrass Tales of the Devil & Woe, Revved-Up Punk, Red-Hot Rockabilly, Jump Blues Rock'N'Roll, topped off with its Haunting Hot Rod title track! This final reunion album cruises to all the right stops along the way.
In 1995, Sinner formed The Chop Tops as a way to share his love of rockabilly music – but he also enjoyed other musical styles (like surf, punk, and psychobilly) and didn’t want to stop playing them completely. So, the band blended their favorite music genres to create their own wild sound. The Chop Tops even coined the phrase “Revved-Up Rockabilly” to describe their unique combination of these styles. The band took their breed of rockabilly music across the U.S. and AU to perform more than 200 shows each year throughout their second decade of touring. Thanks to their music’s unique style, blurring the lines between genres, they’ve shared the stage with legendary greats from Chuck Berry to Dead Kennedys to Dick Dale and many more! So get in your ride, step on the gas, and race down to see The Chop Tops reunion show…you’ll be glad you didn’t miss it!
