Year Of The Wild Cat

Caroline Lorre and Len Lauro are the singing, writing and driving force behind Year Of The Wild Cat, founded in 1992 after inspiration from a Damded concert in NY at the Ritz. Caroline brings her theatrical backround and a 30 year passion for rock and roll to the band in her role as lead singer and front person for Year Of The Wild Cat. Len Lauro freelanced his bass playing on the East Coast during the 70s and 80s before joining with Caroline to form Year Of The Wild Cat. Now, living on the West Coast, Year Of The Wild Cat actively gigs using a number of stunning players including Adam Briggs - formally the drummer for the Teenage Harlets - and Jim Bove - freelance drummer who does most of their current shows. "There's some formal training, some street wise, but all in all Year Of The Wild Cat aims to deliver great songs the best way we can and with the fun it takes to be Rock and Roll. It wasn't like that in New York where Year Of The Wild Cat was ousted (ASKED TO LEAVE!) just about every club we played - or attempted to. Times were different in the early 90s and it would seem that the band was not really appreciated, partly because of the lame-ass suburban attitudes that were prevalent and partly because Year Of The Wild Cat (called PROBLEM at the time) didn't like them either but things are great here in California where we continue to write, sing, record, gig, and I hope, inspire." - len lauro www.yearofthewildcat.com
