... ahooga, ahooga ... went the hot rod's horn when Erik turned the corner. Sorry guys, I'm a bit late, I had a flat tire and I had to fix it .... This is how the eponymous meeting of the Flat Tires took place in 2017. From now on, the 3 wanted to carry their rockabilly from Berlin into the world.
Dusty Gray, who after years of rhythm guitar decided to play the lead gathered two old 2 friends with a lot of Rock'n'Roll experience, the goal: rockabilly - without frills, rough, loud and rhythmic ... just like back then!
The line-up:- Dusty Gray - (Dusty Gray and the rough riding Ramblers, Rhythm Shots, Blisters'n'Gray): vocals, lead guitar- Erik Graffunder - (Birke-Meyer-Trio, Teenage Terror, Wayne Starday's Trailer Kings): Drums, Vocals- Mike Blisters - (Roughnecks, Backwood Boys, G.I.Blooze, Blisters'n'Gray): slap bass, vocals.
Musically, the 3 have dedicated themselves to the classic rockabilly, without forgetting the 'harmony singing' and sophisticated melody leads. A well-known booker called the style of 'Flat Tires' 'High Energy Rockabilly from Berlin'
