Stray Cats bring Rockabilly Revival to Foxwoods on Nov. 7

On Friday, November 7, the original trio—Brian Setzer, Lee Rocker, and Slim Jim Phantom—will take the stage at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket for one electrifying night of high-octane rockabilly. As part of their highly anticipated 2025 fall tour, this stop promises a nostalgic and energy-packed set featuring hits like “Rock This Town,” “Stray Cat Strut,” and more. It’s a must-see for longtime fans and new generations discovering the sound that defined a genre.
All three original members — Brian Setzer (guitar, vocals), Lee Rocker (upright bass, vocals), and Slim Jim Phantom(drums, vocals) — are reuniting for a full-fledged fall tour, marking the band’s return to stages across the country. Kicking off October 25, this month-long trek promises to deliver the raw, high-energy rock & roll show that made them icons.
With a setlist full of classic fan favorites like “Stray Cat Strut,” “Rock This Town,” “Runaway Boys,” and “(She’s) Sexy + 17,” the tour will celebrate everything that’s made the Stray Cats one of the most electrifying live acts in music history.

“What blows me away every time is how this music still connects — decades later, it’s just as raw, just as real,” says Brian Setzer. “We see fans from every generation now.”
“There’s nothing like the sound we make when the three of us hit the stage,” adds Lee Rocker. “It’s high-octane rockabilly, loud and proud. We’re fired up to bring that to fans across the country again!”
Slim Jim Phantom sums it up best: “HOLY MACKEREL! The Cats are back for a very special indoor tour. I’m thrilled and excited to be on the road in 2025 with the best rockabilly band in the world! One thing I can guarantee 100%… we will rock your town!”
