The Dazzlers were a French band that start by being a Rockabilly outfit the Bopkats later because of the worldwide success of the Stray Cats and because at that time all the bands have cats on theirs name like Boppin'Cats, Rockats, Crazy Cats, etc. the audience used to assimilate them as a imitation of Stray Cats when the band just had the same influences and they were playing for years so... The Dazzlers were born !
the original line-up was Patrick Raynaud: singer, Charly Markarian: guitar, Norbert Raynaud: bass. Pierre Laffont: drums. No changes since the beginning.Later that year Michel Thonney spotted them on a TV show and introduced the band to Rockhouse Records. They were searching bands playing Rock n Roll not like a revival music, but like a modern nowadays music so they released this LP Get Away Of My Brain in 1983.The Dazzlers split in the middle of 80's because the members started to disagree on what would be the path and sound of the band in the future.
