As a life long fan, Hot Rock Promotions (Joe Newbon) are extremely happy to announce that we officially represent the original 1950's Philadelphia Rock n Roll legend - "Mr. Fabulous" CHARLIE GRACIE! As of July 2020, we have been working as his booking agent for all UK & European shows!

​

Charlie is one of the few true stars of the 1950s that is still extremely active in the world of live entertainment. A native of South Philadelphia who became the first successful recording star of the 'rock era' to emerge from that neighborhood. In 1957, "Butterfly" topped the American and British music charts, selling over 3 million copies. Charlie had many other rockin' hits in the 50s such as 'Fabulous', 'Ninety-Nine Ways', 'Wandering Eyes', 'Cool Baby' and other recordings became classics in the worldwide Rock n Roll scene such as 'Heart Like A Rock', ' Tootsie' and many more. Such Gracie hits still remain as popular and as fresh to the ears as the day they were recorded! Charlie passes on his best rockin' regards to all of his fans all over the world & he will see you all soon...

Toto & The Raw Deals are the newest sensation on the Rockabilly circuit. From the UK, the band features front man Salvatore Marziano who has been blowing the minds of friends and fans with his vocals, guitar work and stylish front-man energy! He's been backed up by Ex - Jack Rabbit Slim drummer Tony Hillebrandt, Joe Newbon & Sam French.​

​

After only being together for a few months, the band were invited to play the UK's biggest Rockabilly Festival - The Rockabilly Rave, thanks to Jerry Chattabox! The ball hasn't stopped rolling since then. The band now have their first debut album out for sale, and a LTD. Edition 7" 45rpm Vinyl Record has been released by the legendary Flattop Mark on his independent rockin' label FTM RECORDS!

Don't be fooled by the name, The Hillbillies are the most raw and primitive European Rockin' band around! Not only do they put their own twist on covers of obscure Rhythm & Blues and Rockabilly, that does not get played by any other band on the scene, but they also write their own songs which sound like the southern states in 1955 have somehow time traveled and joined us here in the 21st century!

​

I was very honoured to meet these guys in their home town in Dijon, France. A band with such drive and passion, as funny as it may sound, is very hard to come by these days. Most seem to have big ideas but don't have the commitment to put the plans in action. The Hillbillies completely defy that outlook. They are a hardworking, full time professional band and Hot Rock Promotions are very proud to say that we were the first to introduce these guys to the UK scene. We got them over for the very first time in 2018. It would be an understatement to say that they turned some heads, and from that point onward, The Hillbillies have been touring the UK on a regular basis and are quickly making a name for themselves after being booked to play some of the best gigs on the scene including The Rockabilly Rave, Hot Rock, Welsh Rockabilly Fair and many other clubs and festivals. The group has Vinyl and other merchandise for sale (Please contact them directly for merch).

Hot Rock Promotions are now taking booking for their UK shows!

THE RUNAWAYZ

​

​

'The Runawayz' started out in 2015 as, overall, the youngest band on the Rockabilly scene at the time. The trio did a full four year spell playing all across the UK & Europe with their high octane versions of Rockin' classics mixed with some of their own self penned tracks. After a few line-up changes and band members getting involved with other work & projects, the band stopped performing. A few years later, the band was re-formed by founder and "original Runaway" Joe Newbon. He says; "The band are back and ready to rock once again just as high energy and powerful as we were 'famous' for - only this time we are adding a slight spin on what we do which i know you will all love..."
