The Stray Cats took the world by storm with their slicked-back style, raw energy, and hits like “Stray Cat Strut,” “(She’s) Sexy + 17,” and the legendary “Rock This Town” — a track so iconic it’s enshrined by the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame as one of the songs that shaped the genre.

From smoky clubs in New York to topping charts in the UK, Australia, Canada, and the U.S., the Stray Cats didn’t just play rockabilly — they revved it up, set it on fire, and made it coll all over again.
