Slip and the Spinouts are an established Rockabilly
/ Roots band on the South Florida circuit. They are one of South Florida’s
busiest bands playing the entire state, East Coast and Las Vegas. Their
eclectic blend of rockabilly, western swing, surf, old country, blues
and roots music appeals to people of all ages and lifestyles.
The Spinouts are exceptional performers who stand out
among the other bands. Playing various venues from large festivals and
events, to local bars, clubs and restaurants; even the occasional wedding.
The Spinouts have played in Las Vegas for the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly
Weekender, as well as Atlanta, Va., Pa. and N.C. Being versatile musicians
Slip and the Spinouts can play for the dinner crowd at local historic
Restaurant the Mai-Kai, or played a revved up ear splitting show for
the Hot Rod and Biker crowd.
Slip and the Spinouts play original Rockabilly / Country / Swing songs
that are available on their C.D's, plus for the bar circuit they have 3.5
hours of music and 65+ songs featuring their Rockabilly originals plus

They also cover modern Rockabilly songs by Stray Cats, Reverend
Horton Heat, Hank 3, Hillbilly Hellcats and more and recently have given 80's
and 90's pop rock a Rockabilly feel like Cheap Tricks 'I Want You to Want Me" and
Fastball's "The Way". Since the band plays several weddings a year, one time
on a River Boat they are also capable of playing quite a few slow songs like
Elvis's "One Night" and Sinatra's "Fly Me to the Moon". But to see Slip and
the Spinouts in their full glory is to see them play their original Rockabilly
and Hillbilly Swing tunes in a large venue.
