It is always fun when Mercury Audio returns to Lethbridge.

So the Calgary based rockabilly/ country band  including Dylan Sadlier-Brown, Chad Schroter-Gillespie, Thomas Craib and  Tyler Stewart (for a few songs) already had a crowd ready, willing and able to party with a 1950s spirit at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, Feb. 19.

They played a couple of excellent new songs which had more of an alt-country/ Steve Earle feel than their usual set of rockabilly and country classics, though there was plenty of that to be heard.

They played some George Jones, Johnny Burnette and the Rolling Stones “ Out of Time.”

They invited Tyler Stewart on stage to play a few songs as he  has since moved to Lethbridge. The Peter Gunn theme was a highlight of those songs as was a Brian Setzer song  “49 Mercury Blues.”

Sadlier-Brown sounded  like a mix of Bruce Springsteen, the Sadies and Steve Earle in places.
