The Dreamboats: Why the Spirit of Rock 'n' Roll Still Matters

Can music created more than 60 years ago still feel young? The Dreamboats certainly think so. In this episode of Boomerocity, Randy Patterson talks with members of The Dreamboats, a four-piece band originally from Canada and now based in Palm Springs that has built a following by bringing the energy, harmonies and showmanship of 1950s and 1960s rock 'n' roll to today's audiences. From Elvis Presley and Buddy Holly to The Beatles, The Dreamboats celebrate some of the artists who helped define rock 'n' roll while putting their own youthful energy into the music. We talk about how they discovered music created long before their generation, why those songs continue to connect with younger listeners, their highly interactive live shows and the fascinating experience of watching multiple generations come together through the same music. It's more than nostalgia. It's another generation discovering just how much fun rock 'n' roll can be. Boomerocity — The Essence of Being a Baby Boomer.
