Hawkins’ music and outlandish onstage persona inspired generations of musicians after him. And yet, little is known of the man and little can be taken at face value. Hawkins interpreted his past with a poetic license to kill, a magical amalgam of his own making—creating disparate stories alternatively terrible or sympathetic at his will.

Forget about zombies! With the Resurrection of Screamin' Jay Hawkins Band, the man who invented shock-rock is back and he is gonna put a spell on you. Don't miss the most exciting stage act since Screamin' Jay Hawkins first emerged from a coffin. - Steve Bergsman, author of I Put a Spell on You: The Bizarre Life of Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

From somebody who got to see Screamin’ Jay Hawkins himself, The Resurrection of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins Band is practically the real thing, and a must to witness. The Resurrection of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins Band is doing their part in Saving American Music.
