THE CADILLAC KINGS
The Cadillac Kings are a long-established blues circuit act who have been acclaimed as the number one swing-blues band in the U.K., with a busy touring schedule and a large following in Britain and Europe.
This is their official website ... www.cadillackings.co.uk ... where sadly you will find no mention of Delta D nor any music featuring my twangin tones. I did not record with the band and do not play guitar on the Cadillac Kings CDs (or Myspace trax etc). I was a member of the touring band from 2005 to 2007. I quit the band after around 200 shows, one too many Palm Royales, and a terminal row in the band van in Belgium.

Somewhere in England, it's 1953 tonight, and The Cadillac Kings are playin in your gran's front room. On a big old radiogram smellin of hot electricity and walnut polish.
That's the smell of Kings ... Cadillac Kings ....
Yes indeed folks, somewhere in England it's America tonite, and the Cadillac Kings are broadcastin live from the West Coast, bout 20 years before them crazy hippies took hold. Back then, joints were for rockin, not rollin.
So the joint is rockin, and in walks some ungrateful deadbeat with a dame who looks like she knows somethin about the case we're all workin on. Trouble is, it's 2009 and we aint in California no more. This is England baby, and we need a drink.
