About The Rivers Rockabilly Trio

"Rockabilly is fun. The Rivers Rockabilly Trio proves it!" ~ Allentown Morning Call. Selected as a BEST FIND by the Philadelphia Inquirer, The Rivers play the first hits of rock'n'roll, music of the 1950s: Bill Haley, Buddy Holly, The Everly Brothers, Eddie Cochran, the young Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry and more, in respectful tribute to the original recordings. Outstanding musicianship with great harmonies and vocals by all members of the band. Popular with community concert series and theatrical venues, The Rivers also enjoy being a part of private functions, theme events, birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries. A clap-along, sing-along dancing celebration of historic American music!

Biography:

HERE'S THE WAY IT HAPPENED:

In 2005, Philadelphia area singer-guitarist Stu Frederick noticed that a certain kind of music made people from every generation really happy whenever it was played. As a teacher, he had already learned that every school child knows "Blue Suede Shoes" and "Hound Dog!" How?

"To heck with 'How?'!" reasoned Stu. "Why not put together a band that will play this music that makes people of all ages bounce and smile?" And so, The Rivers Rockabilly Trio was born.

The Rivers are now in their fifth year. Having made scores of appearances in public and private events and venues throughout the Delaware Valley, they have also enjoyed being part of many private family events; birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, etc.

They have produced two semi-theatrical, multimedia tribute shows (one for all ages and one especially for kids) in several prominent Pennsylvania theater venues.

There's not another style of music out there that uniquely appeals to multiple generations the way that The Rivers' repertoire does. It gives them great pleasure to represent music that means so much to so many and yet is rarely heard on the radio anymore right here in the country where it was born! The Rivers also take great pleasure in assuring the following:

The Rivers' shows are always "family-safe" and fun for all!
