Rockabilly Swing Honky Tonk Blues!

The Twilight Drifters have been a fixture on the Sacramento rockabilly music scene for nearly 10 years. 2019 started with the release of '10 Lively Melodies', and  the nomination for a Sacramento Area Music Award (SAMMIE) in the Rockabilly category. 2018 was also a big year for the Twilight Drifters, coming off the release of their second album ‘Paint and Primer’, leading to the nomination for the international Ameripolitan Award in Memphis, TN, to performing at the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Festival, and Deke Dickerson’s Guitar Geek Festival.

The Twilight Drifters are a rockabilly and roots rock ‘n roll trio based in Northern California. Described as an ”American roots music sensation”, the Twilight Drifters draw upon such artists as Eddie Cochran, Gene Vincent, Bill Doggett, Big Joe Turner, Bob Wills and Elvis Presley, channeling sounds of the 1950s into a mix of re-made classic and original songs. Performing danceable tunes spanning genres of rock ‘n roll, honky tonk, western swing, rockabilly and west coast blues, the Twilight Drifters offer a compelling musical experience that entertains, moves, and captivates audiences.

The Twilight Drifters’ fast-spreading reputation and audience appeal led the band to appearances at such regional events as the Midnight Mass Car Show (Sacramento, California), Sacramento Swing Time Car Show and Music Festival (Sacramento, California), Scarlett Fever (San Francisco, California), Lake Havasu Rockabilly Reunion (Lake Havasu, Arizona), and the Rockabilly Extravaganza (Riverside, California).   Over the years, the Twilight Drifters have shared marquees and stages with artists including Big Sandy and his Fly-Rite Boys, The Blasters, Deke Dickerson, Los Straightjackets, Cherry Poppin Daddy’s, and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.
