The Big Town Playboys are a six-piece acoustic British rhythm and blues revival group.
The Big Town Playboys have released a series of studio albums, as well as a collaborative project with Jeff Beck (entitled Crazy Legs), re-creating the songs of Gene Vincent.
They have performed as a backing band for Robert Plant, who contributed guest vocals on their album Roll the Dice.
Eric Clapton has expressed admiration for their work,[3] arranging for them to open for him during his two-week-long stint at the Royal Albert Hall in London in 1996.
In May 2005, the band teamed up with Gary Brooker and Andy Fairweather Low to give a charity concert called "Aftershock" in India, with all proceeds to benefit victims of the tsunami caused by the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake.
