This week we're wishing a happy "heavenly" 94th birthday to Virginia Patterson Hensley, better known to most country and rockabilly fans as Patsy Cline, born back in 1932 in Winchester, VA! Excited to be featuring a great assortment of her popular honky tonk, smooth countrypolitan and proto-rockabilly recordings on this week's "Go Kat, GO! The Rock-A-Billy Show!" We're also dishing up some great NEW tracks for fans or real 50's rockin' roll including the debut of the great Seatbelt single from their forthcoming album "Ghosts At The Bar", bop n roll from Jake Calypso, killer hillbilly rock from Kyle Eldridge, scorching sounds from Geo & The Hotwires, Ameripolitan music from Dale Watson (the Ameripolitan Music Awards are returning in 2027!), swingin' Hawaiiana from Kitty, Daisy & Lewis & MORE!
