The Esquire Boys were an American rock and roll group popular in the 1950s. Led by guitarist Danny Cedrone, who is notably known for his work on Bill Haley's "Rock Around the Clock", the band was an early contributor to the rockabilly genre. They were distinguished by their fusion of swing jazz, country, and blues, best exemplified in tracks like "Rock-a-Beatin' Boogie". Their work, while not widely recognized, played a crucial role in the early evolution of rock and roll music.
