Grammy-nominated Stray Cats' co-founder and bass player Lee Rocker will bring his signature rockabilly sound to Surprise this month.
Rocker made his mark singing, playing, standing on, and spinning his giant upright bass as a founding member of the Grammy-nominated Stray Cats. Known for hits like "Rock This Town," "Stray Cat Strut" and "Sexy and Seventeen," Rocker will perform at 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 28 at The Vista Center for the Arts, 15660 N. Parkview Place.
