" used to work with a guy who played in a band called The Woodies (named after a car, of course)."

Yes and so many more in this niche: The Eliminators, Los Straightjackets, the Fathoms, and one of my fav's an all girl band out of Toronto, The Surfrajettes. This type of music is not dead by a long shot, bands have been formed in all over the planet performing in this style...

Don’t forget the Tornados or Duane Eddie.
