HIROLLERS were formed in 2006 in Athens, Greece from musicians that except being experienced at Greek rock n roll bands, they had the will to form a band being unique in style in order to create and perform the kind of music they always loved. They decided the style to be the one that was in the late 40s and early 50s and it was a mixture of BLUES,JAZZ,SWING KAI BOOGIE WOOGIE and that was performed by 4-5 member bands due to the fact that big bands were no longer active because of the war. This unique style had the name JIVE and its main representatives were WYNNONIE HARRIS, LOUIS JORDAN, BIG JOE TURNER, ROY BROWN, LOUIS PRIMMA, RUTH BROWN, WYNNONA CARR and many more that today are called messiahs of ROCK'N'ROLL. HI ROLLERS are experimenting with their own music but they also perform cover songs from that era.
