Three Blue Teardrops established 1991

Chicago based roots rockinâ trio Three Blue Teardrops are poised to reclaim their place as one of Rock-n-Rollâs proudest and finest institutions as they celebrate their 15th anniversary together. Formed in the fall of 1991 (way back when Seattle âgrungeâ was en vogue) Three Blue Teardrops were at the forefront of a stateside rockabilly and swing revival with their unique and energetic style. A three piece trio of drums, upright bass and guitar, the band began writing and performing original songs that combined elements of 1970âs punk , gut bucket blues, jungle swing, gospel, garage rock, hillbilly jazz and country harmony to the 1950âs style raw rockabilly sounds of our Rock-N-Roll forefathers to create their own contemporary sound that was not stuck in the trappings of rockabilly, psychobilly, punk, blues or any single musical sub genre. The bandâs appeal (and controversially to some strict rockabilly traditionalistâs disapproval) was itâs truly energetic and original genre bending and blurring take on vintage American AND modern musical styles as well as the trioâs desire to seek out and frequently play on all age musical bills that were non rockabilly, often do things âun-retroâ and do a whole lot more than hold itâs own against punk, hardcore, ska, heavy metal, alternative and pop bands. This approach introduced and initiated a whole new generation of approving kids into the genre of ârockabillyâ and has spawned countless imitators and influenced bands who were enamored by the trioâs loud emergence from the âgood time American roots rockabilly greaser punk cesspool.â
