Blues & Beyond: The Blue Cats

Natalie’s, with support from the Columbus Blues Alliance (CBA), presents Blues & Beyond Happening Hour. This weekly Wednesday series will include different local artists for each show. This week features The Blue Cats! The Blue Cats are veteran blues-jazz musicians Rick Collura (electric guitar), Terry Finneran (keys, vocals, blues harp, flute), Andy Smith (percussion), and York Procter (electric bass). This quartet unites to bring you energetic original arrangements of favorites from their musical hip pockets. Their experiences include extended support time with local favorites (Willie Pooch, Tyler, Jim Lynch, Tony Monaco, Dave Workman), as well as on stage experience with a variety of national acts including James Brown, Albert King, Luther Allison, Johnny Winter, Tom Scott, Leo Kotke, and The Griswolds. The Columbus Blues Alliance (CBA) is a non-profit organization founded to help preserve and nurture blues music and is an affiliate of the Blues Foundation in Memphis. They are an ALL-volunteer corporation depending on the generosity and charity of members to donate their time and energy towards providing programs to support musicians. Bar seating will always be available on a first-come, first-served basis and cannot be reserved. Getting your tickets ahead of time and tipping the artists are strongly encouraged for our FREE Happening Hour Shows!
