The Stray Cats, formed in 1979 in Massapequa, New York, by Brian Setzer, Lee Rocker, and Slim Jim Phantom, helped revive rockabilly in the early 1980s with their authentic musicianship and updated 1950s-inspired style. After relocating to London in 1980 as the UK's rockabilly revival was gaining momentum, they quickly rose to international success. Their biggest hits include "Runaway Boys," "Rock This Town," "Stray Cat Strut," "(She's) Sexy + 17," and "I Won't Stand in Your Way."
