BLACK CAT BISCUIT (B)
Geen plat getreden paden of grijs gespeelde covers bij Black Cat Biscuit, maar een verrassende, bij wijlen hitsige cocktail van frisse nummers gemarineerd in een ‘special gumbo hot sauce’ gebracht door vijf gedreven muzikanten!
Yasser (Six-pack, Wood & Roses) is uw gastheer met een in alcohol doortrokken blues stem die toch met vaste hand zijn swingende gitaar en de rest van de band leidt.
Patrick ‘P.Daddy Alley’ Indestege (Big Mama’s Kitchen, Rhythm Bombs, Elmore D, Ale & Alley) op contrabas vormt met
Jeffrey Gijbels (Belgium’s Got Talent, Festeyn) op drums een vertrouwde rhythm section die swingt als een tiet!
Stanley Patty (Doctor Rhythm, Phil Bee and the Buzztones, Rhythm Bombs, The Loveveins) is één van de meest gewaardeerde bluesgitaristen in de Benelux, zijn sound is een mix van zijn voorbeelden Magic Sam, Albert Collins en Johnny Guitar Watson, vermengd met zijn eigen typische gevoel en techniek.
Mr Mark Sepanski (the Monday Lovers, Six-pack) blaast de ziel uit zijn lijf en bekeert de laatste twijfelaars tot het Bluesdom.
Black Cat Biscuit speelt een bezwerende gig die je niet mag missen, hierna zal niets meer hetzelfde zijn!
Come and see us!
21u00 - 22u00:
DETONICS (NL)
Detonics…a shot of West Coast Blues!
Coming from the Netherlands…it’s “Detonics”!
Zodra Detonics speelt ontstaat de sfeer van prostitutie, illegale casino’s, zelf gestookte whisky en Al Capone. Dat dit bij het grote bluespubliek aanslaat blijkt wel uit de dampende optredens in internationale gelegenheden en festivals zoals: BB Kings club Memphis (USA), Moulin Blues, Ribs & Blues, Breda Jazz, Culemborg Blues (Nederland), Swing Wespelaar (België), Santa Maria Blues festival (Azoren), Zyfflich Blues (Duitsland) etc.
De hoge kwaliteit en verfrissende performance is ook door internationaal gerenommeerde vakjury’s erkend: Detonics heeft in 2016 de Dutch Blues challenge gewonnen en Nederland vertegenwoordigd op de European Blues Challenge. Daarbij hebben de vijf heren in 2017 zelfs de halve finale van de International Blues Challenge in Memphis bereikt!
Geïnspireerd door de vroege West Coast blues speelt Detonics vooral Swing en Boogie, maar een uitstapje naar een Rumba of slow blues wordt niet geschuwd. Dit natuurlijk zonder te veel op de West Coast sound in te leveren.
“Detonics” are ready to rock!
Kars van Nus – Lead vocals and blues harp Jeremy Aussems – Guitar Raimond de Nijs- Piano and Hammond Mathijs Roks – Drums René Leijtens – Upright bass and backing vocals

Winner of the European Blues Challenge!! An energizing mix of old-skool ragtime, gypsyjazz and roots/blues, played with a rock ‘n roll attitude: "Rag ‘n Roll!"
After a year of busking, gigging The Netherlands and doing a few European tours we're very proud to say we won 1st place on the European Blues Challenge.
Also, we've just finished a big project, our 12 song debut album “Rag 'n Roll”, which is released the 19th of October through Ruf-Records. Our debut EP "Ain't Nobody" is still available.

KAT RIGGINS (USA)
Who's That Lady
Kat Riggins was born Katriva Riggins in Miami, Florida on February 7, 1980. She grew up in a household where there was always background music. Because of the wide range of genres in her parents’ collection, Kat developed a love for all types of music from gospel and soul to country and rock and everything in between. "I can remember being in the car with my mom and sister singing along to Tracy Chapman one minute and Chuck Berry the next", says Kat. However, even then, she was drawn to the smoky gritty sounds of artists like Bessie Smith, Sam Cooke, Nina Simone, Tina Turner, Denise LaSalle, Etta James, Ray Charles, Koko Taylor, Janis Joplin and the list goes on. She grew up singing in local programs, church events, and family gatherings with her sister and cousins. At age 23 Kat landed a gig singing jazz and blues standards in a small lounge in Sunny Isles Beach, Florida with the accompaniment of only a piano player. Since then she has performed throughout Florida, New Orleans, Vietnam, Thailand, China, South Korea, Curacao, Belgium and The Netherlands so far.
Kat's own musical style is a blend of the blues with hip hop, pop, rock, gospel and even country music. "It's all related anyway", she exclaims. She is inspired by young artists such as Janelle Monae, Karreim Riggins, SyncOpera and ZZ Ward and Andra Day who share in her passion to revive music from the vinyl days. "It's about the raw emotion in every note", Kat says. " If I can move someone to feel what I feel when I sing a song, then it's all worth it". With her own band, Blues Revival, she travels the world with the intent to "wake up the blues one song at a time"!
With her first two works, an EP called "Seoul Music" and an original album called "Lily Rose" Kat penned each song with subtle hints of her love of the blues. Her second album, aptly named after her band "Blues Revival" is a loud and proud declaration of that love! "Blues Revival" is a clever mashup of gospel-blues, blues-rock, funky blues, contemporary and traditional blues, with BLUES being the operative word! Her third release is titled, "In the Boys' Club" .Much like Kat’s “Blues Revival” album, “In the Boys Club” is a collage of all things blues.. From traditional blues tracks like “Cheat Or Lose” or “Kitty Won’t Scratch” to the hard driving blues-rock sounds of “Fistful O’ Water” and Johnnie Walker, Kat Riggins encompasses everything she loves about this ever flowering genre. This release is meant to be a bold representation of the female presence in this “man’s world”. All twelve songs were penned by Kat and arranged together by Kat and her band to highlight a woman’s strength, humility, resilience, ambition, passion and compassion.. This is not just for the blues lover. This is for all those who love music! With this and albums to come, Kat Riggins's focus is to be a part of this musical revolution that aims to awaken the masses and introduce them to the sincerity behind blues music.
