Brian Setzer New Single 'Black Leather Jacket'

Brian Setzer and his Black Leather Jacket

Brian Setzer has released 'Black Leather Jacket,' the newest available track from his forthcoming album, 'The Devil Always Collects' out September 15 via Surfdog Records. 'Black Leather Jacket' follows his first released song for the album 'Girl on the Billboard'.

Setzer discusses his self-written “Black Leather Jacket,” saying, “‘Black Leather Jacket’ is the story of my black leather jacket I bought when I was 18. It followed the guy through his whole life. He wore a black leather jacket when he met his girl and then got into a crash. Til the very end he had a black leather jacket. I like the idea of it. Black leather jackets are very personal things. They’re something you keep. You don’t get rid of those. So one of the first ones I bought was probably down at St. Mark’s Place [in NYC]…But I still have one from England from the 80’s. Surprisingly it’s a little small,” he adds jokingly. “It must have shrunk. But I still take it out for a ride.”

Brian Setzer will begin touring September 27th in Red Bank, NJ at the Count Basie Center for the Arts and has shows lineup in October, You can see all dates and get tickets at BRIANSETZER.COM/TOUR-DATES
