In January of 1988, amidst the frozen badlands of V�ster�s, Sweden, a gang
of Vikings decided to become a rockabilly trio and call themselves the Go
Getters.
Ten years later, the ensuing inferno still rages like an oil fire out of
control.
Armed with a blazing guitarist, a slapping bass player, and a standup
drummer on lead vocals, this trio has electrified its audiences with enough
ass-kickin', blues-marinated, high-octane rockabilly wattage to light up
Las Vegas-- which it actually did in 1998.
The fanatical crowds and general bedlam witnessed at their early shows
prompted the Go Getters to record, and after appearing on several
compilation albums in the late '80's they released their first single, You
Don't Love Me, in 1992. The platter soon topped the European roots music
charts and led to the release of their debut LP, Real Gone!; considered a
milestone in modern rockabilly music for its even heavier infusion of the
blues. The success of these records fueled an insatiable demand for the
group throughout Europe, and for the better part of a decade they toured
the continent without mercy.
In addition to their own shows, during this time the Go Getters backed many
of the 50's biggest rockabilly stars, including Sleepy La Beef, Ray Sharp,
Larry Donn, Johnny Powers and the greatest of them all, Mr. "Rockin' Bones"
himself, Ronnie Dawson out of Dallas, Texas. Since 1990 Dawson has used
The Go Getters exclusively as his touring band in Scandinavia.
Red hot from seven years on the road, the Go Getters embarked on their
first tour of the United States in 1995, burning through Chicago, Detroit
and Minneapolis before finally incinerating Fairmont Indiana, where they
played the Rebel Weekender to a thunderous ovation, proving that a gang of
Vikings could still conquer a continent.
Led by singer/songwriter/drummer/hot rodder extraordinare Peter Sandberg,
the group also released two singles in '95; Gangwar/ Hobo Baby and
Sandberg's self-penned Loud Pipes`n Lead Feet, the latter a smash hit in
the hot rod world.
In '96 they released the single MeXiGo!/ Madman Blues on Goofin Records,
and their second, blistering LP, Hotter Than A Pepper. In May of that year
the group also made their long awaited appearance at the Hemsby Rock & Roll
Weekender #16 in the U.K., inciting their fans to near riot. That summer
they hit the road again for their second U.S. tour, invading New York,
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Portland and Boston, and in the Viking tradition,
taking no prisoners.
`98 saw the release of their third LP, Rock & Roll Is Everywhere! and their
third U.S. tour, which ignited Los Angeles, San Deigo, San Francisco, San
Jos� and ultimately, "Sin City" and the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekender
#1, where their performance was said to have raised the candlepower of the
Vegas skyline to that of a nuclear blast.
A week after sweeping out the ashes and arriving home from the road, the
band was gone again for its triumphant return to England and the Hemsby
Rock & Roll Weekender #20.
1999 follows the Go Getters on their fourth U.S. tour with no containment
in sight. From America, they'll continue their global-warming trend Down
Under on their first 10-city barn-burning tour of Australia.

"The Go Getters mix of rhythm & blues, rockabilly and country generates a
positive party atmosphere that will keep the beer-taps open all night at
any bar. You�ll die dancin�! If these cats don't move ya, You're dead!"
--"Big Jim" Crawford, Rhythm & Booze Magazine
