Catherine Russell Band
Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY
Her father was Louis Armstrong's music director and a noted bandleader in his own right; her mother was a member of the iconic International Sweethearts of Rhythm. Critic Nat Hentoff says that pedigree and her own unmistakable chops make Cat Russell "the real thing." Inspired by the likes of Chick Webb, Hoagy Carmichael and Louis Armstrong, Russell harks back to tales of lusty, big-hearted women who knew what was what and spoke out accordingly. Whether she's shimmying through a barrel-house stomper, channeling fifties R&B, dragging her weary heart through a torchy juke joint number, or kicking up her heels honky tonk style, Ms. Russell can stand comparison to her greatest forebearers. She has performed and/or recorded with Paul Simon, Steely Dan, Cyndi Lauper, Joan Osborne, Madonna, Jackson Browne, Rosanne Cash, and David Bowie, among others, and participated in several gold-and-platinum selling recordings.
