    The Bopcats

    Jimmy Jessop - vocals 
    Annie Bickford – vocals 
    Lynn Wallace - drums 
    Johnny Gray - guitar/vocals 
    Peter Doyle – lap steel 
    Peter Karasavas – piano 
    Craig ‘Lanky’ Townsend - bass 

    The Bopcats evolved from Sydney bands The Humdinger Dogs and The Hawaiian Housewreckers. Johnny Gray and Peter Doyle put The Bopcats together in 1978 to play a New Orleans style of rock and roll. With the vocals of Jimmy Jessop and Annie Bickford they enjoyed success throughout Sydney until they disbanded in 1981.

    They were one of the three bands to appear on Piranha Brothers ‘The Best Of The Inner West’ album.
