Phil Bloomberg

Phil Bloomberg, also known as Phil Polecat, is best known for his work with the rockabilly band The Polecats who gained prominence in the early 1980s with their energetic blend of rockabilly and punk influences. They achieved UK chart success with their cover of David Bowie's "John, I'm Only Dancing," which reached No. 35 in 1981. Other notable tracks include a reworked version of "Rockabilly Guy" and a cover of T-Rex's "Jeepster."

Beyond his tenure with The Polecats, Phil has been involved with many other musical projects, including playing with Katy Prado & The Mamboleros. He is also credited as a composer for the film "Isle of Dogs" (2010).

Throughout his career, Phil has been recognised for his dynamic double bass playing and contributions to the rockabilly genre.

Phil and Lars have performed together many times, including in recent years the show Walk Right Back.
