Nobody’s Business is a swingin’ rockabilly/roots rock trio from Detroit, MI formed in 1995 by singer, songwriter, guitarist Bill Giorgio.

reviews:

… Jack Scott, who performed at the “Sounds of Detroit,” agrees that the city has changed. Scott was Detroit’s first rock ‘n’ roll star. Born in Windsor, his family moved to Hazel Park when he and his brother were young children. He scored his first regional hit in 1957 with “Baby She’s Gone” and followed with national hits like “The Way I Walk” and “What in the World”–Rockabilly Hall

“Jack Scott is undeniably the greatest Canadian rock and roll singer of all time”

Dave Marsh – author of Born to Run and co-editor of The Rolling Stone Record Guide – 1990

 

“With the exception of Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley, no white Rock and Roller of the time ever developed a finer voice with a better range than Jack Scott, or cut a more convincing body of work in Rockabilly, Rock and Roll, Country-Soul, Gospel, Country-Pop or Blues”.
