The Lounge Cats

The repertoire is a variety of acoustic rock, blues and pop songs that we can tailor based on your particular event. Though we like to perform our own spin on the songs, all of the songs will be familiar to the audience. We can also play some jazz, depending on the type of audience. Though we are a small group, we’ve been told that our sound seems bigger than what you see. We can interact with the audience or just provide nice ambient, background music, if that is what’s desired.

The group has 3 members: voice (female), keyboardist and percussionist (congas, shakers, very light cymbals). All with 20+ years of performing experience. We have our own sound system. We don't take up much space - and because we don't have a drummer, we can play as softly as needed.

The Lounge Cats are a unique three piece acoustic band, performing rock & blues favorites - re-imagined with a splash of Latin and jazz. Dedicated to putting on great show, we are song-forward act that always provides the audience with a fun and memorable performance. The Lounge Cats are vocalist Joan Cleary, keyboardist Mike Costa and percussionist Richard Graham

We generally need about 50 sq. ft. (about 6' x 8') for the 3 of us. One 20A outlet for power for our equipment. No special lighting. We have our own sound system, which is strong enough to fill a mid-size room.
