150 dates a year and has opened for Luther ‘Guitar’ Jr. Johnson,

you need to see these guys perform.

The Soulcats
at the Onset Bay Blues Cafe |
Classic soul and R&B played with precision
and finesse is the name of the game here. Wes James and Stu Johnston
anchor the rhythm section while Dave Richardson comps effortlessly behind
the vocals until it's time to pounce into a perfectly executed solo.
All of this sets up a solid
foundation from which Melissa Barbosa weaves her magic spell. A stunning
performer, her enthusiasm is contagious. Don't think you're leaving without
a smile and a dance.
