Can you refer me to an artist that is a mix of blues and rock a billy?

Asked by CuriousLoner (1812points) October 16th, 2012

I really enjoy Brian Setzer and rock billy style, and general enjoy blues music. Particular to slow deep moody blues. Thing is I find it hard to get a nice combination of up beat rock a billy or swing even with deep gritty slow blues type stuff.

Any suggestions??

Dunno, Joe Bonamassa is pretty damn good. More bluesy than anything else, but I love his stuff.

Eddie Cochran is old school rock-a-belly and blues.
and he is a huge influence on Brian Setzer
