About J.P. McDermott and Western Bop
J.P. McDermott and Western Bop play rockabilly, ballads and drinking songs -- it's a fun, fresh mix of great songs by the likes of Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, and Roy Orbison, plus a bunch of fine original tunes in the same vein, a good time is guaranteed. But you never know what you’ll hear -- rockabilly influenced everybody from The Beatles to T-Rex to Led Zepellin to Elvis Costello and beyond. This is no oldies act -- it’s live and vital and rockin’ and real. Back before folks knew it was Rock and Roll they called it Western Bop.
“With soaring vocals, hard-rocking rockabilly, and a heartfelt way with a ballad, J.P. McDermott is breathing fresh air into one of America’s great musical traditions”
