Travels up to 200 miles
We provide a high-energy, interactive rockabilly, surf, and swing show for a variety of different venues and events.
The Phantom Playboys bring the sounds of Rock-a-billy and 50's Rock-n-Roll with a splash of surf and flying jump-kick of raw energy! Imagine a Zombified Elvis Presley joined The Squirrel Nut Zippers and Recruited Unknown Hinson to play guitar. Get out your dancin' shoes, because when this five-piece brass and steel freight train comes barreling down the tracks from Wilmington, NC, there won't be a still foot in the house!

Gig length: 60 - 180 minutes
We are a rockabilly, surf, and swing band that plays both rocking originals and classic covers. We typically perform 50-60 minute sets with 10-15 minute breaks in between them.
We own a PA that works well in indoor venues, and for most gig, we provide our PA and stage lights. If your venue is outdoor, we may ask that you provide a PA.
If you hire a professional to provide a PA or if your event is at a professional venue, we might be able to come down a little on price.
