The Stray Cats—original members Brian Setzer (guitar, vocals), Lee Rocker (upright bass, vocals), and Slim Jim Phantom (drums, vocals)—have announced their return to the road for fall 2025 with a cross-country month-long tour. Set to begin on October 25, the iconic multi-million selling band will be bringing their legendary live show and red-hot rock & roll to U.S. audiences. Their setlists will include such favorites as “Stray Cat Strut,” “Rock This Town,” “Runaway Boys,” “(She’s) Sexy + 17,” and more. A fan club presale begins July 29 at 10 a.m. local time; tickets for the general public go on sale August 1 at 10 a.m. local time here.

The shows follow 2024’s critically acclaimed summer tour. “What blows me away every time is how this music still connects — decades later, it’s just as raw, just as real,” said Setzer in the July 28 announcement. “We see fans from every generation now.”

“There’s nothing like the sound we make when the three of us hit the stage—it’s high-octane rockabilly, loud and proud,” added Rocker. We’re fired up to bring that to fans across the country again!”

Phantom said, “I’m thrilled and excited to be on the road in 2025 with the best Rockabilly band in the world! These are the venues where the Cats sound best and one thing I can guarantee 100%…We Will Rock Your Town!!”

The band’s recordings are available in the U.S. here, in Canada here and in the U.K. here.
