I always love hearing Calgary based high octane rockabilly band the Hi Strung Downers play because they are just so into their performance.
The Calgary quartet dressed in natty suits rocked the Owl Acoustic Lounge , May 27 with a couple of hot sets of high energy rockabilly and rock and roll music full of throbbing upright bass, blistering guitar licks and an unstoppable beat.
They are so much fun and a really good sized crowd, were really into the music.
It’s hard not to listen to them without tapping your toes.
They drank heavily from the well of ’50s rock and roll with a couple straight shots of punk fury.
There were plenty of blistering guitar licks, an unbeatable beat and a lot of big, sweaty energy.
