Based around ex-patriot Englishmen Oliver Baroni and Duncan James together with Swiss-Italian chanteuse Emanuela Hutter, they’ve long been showing Zurich how to rock’n’roll. Now having built a large fanbase through touring across Europe, they’re now added the USA to their itinerary. As their name suggests The Hillbilly Moon Explosion’s roots are in rockabilly; however they’ve always been just as comfortable with 60’s pop, ska, smoky ballads and much more - their musical template embraces all roots rock Americana.
‘Damn Right Honey’ features two distinctive guest singers joining them for duets. Rockabilly vocalist Paul Ansell, the chosen singer of Scotty Moore, contributes to the single ‘Flying High, Moaning Low’. And Sparky Phillips returns to duet with Emanuela on ‘Northern Crown’. For the first time they’ve engaged a brass section, and are aided and abetted by BJ Cole and Geraint Watkins amongst others. The vinyl version features an extra track. ‘Pack Lunch’*.
