One cool cat combining vocals with guitar, bass, piano, and digital drums to produce new Rockabilly favorites for today's avid listeners. tracks "Okay cool cats, so it's not 1958, you say? Sez you, man! Next thing ya know I'm gonna say that this CD isn't a band or even a trio as pictured. It isn't?.. Somehow, I managed to write and produce all of the songs on this CD. And I got to dust off my Gretsch guitar, do some digital drum work, play the upright bass, piano, and sing. Believe me, it was a real gas! And, oh yeah, gas was just 19 cents a gallon in 1958! Hope you dig this. Peace."

“Rockabilly Boy” is a country/rockabilly album with blues elements from Richie Copalello. With “Rockabilly Boy,” Copalello digs deep into his multi-instrumentalist repertoire as he plays the drums and guitar on each track, as well as the harmonica, organ, piano, and slide guitar. His vocals, musical styling, and lyrics combine to create a nice musical medium between country and traditional rockabilly. He sings about drinking, dancing, and pick-up trucks and is capable of singing like traditional rockabilly artists or with a crooning country twang similar to Conway Twitty. Copalello put a good deal of effort into making the album sound vintage, and the listener could easily mistake this album for coming straight out of the 1950s. “Whiskey, Whiskey” is a playfully bitter song, as Copalello sings, “Whiskey, whiskey, I thought you was my friend.” “Slippery Shoes” is a straight-up rockabilly song, lyrically and musically and makes you feel as though you should be surrounded by poodle skirts. “These Words” effectively builds to a nice 2-part harmonized part that has that authentic 50s sound that is a trademark of this CD.. Overall, “Rockabilly Boy” is a good album that shows Copalello’s impressive musical talent, and that uses creative production to capture the sound of decades past. Fans of ‘50s rock music and rockabilly music, check out “Rockabilly Boy.”
