Guitar Slinger is the second studio album by the American swing revival band The Brian Setzer Orchestra. It was originally released in Japan in 1995, with a resequenced version released internationally in 1996. The album continues the band's fusion of big band swing and rockabilly, featuring a mix of original compositions and cover songs. Notable tracks include "Hoodoo Voodoo Doll" and a rendition of Gene Pitney's "Town Without Pity." Guitar Slinger further established the Brian Setzer Orchestra’s role in the 1990s swing revival movement.
