About Me

Alycat is a singer and a songwriter. But not really a singer/songwriter. And she plays bass. Her songs are a what they call "spunk funk"...aka a tasty blend of funk, soul, jazz, rock and jam. AlyCat's boisterous, unruly persona consistently demands the crowd's attention and holds it until the very end . When she grabs her bass she always proceeds to play her fingers off. AlyCat and her band will be your tour guides on a trip through various musical terrain. Sections of funk, hip-hop, reggae, electronica, and rock can sometimes appear all in one song. "It's one part funk, one part soul, with a splash of rock and pop. We jam out, but not so much that you need drugs to appreciate it....although it does help.", she notes. The lyrics will make u laugh and sometimes will make you wanna punch a wall. No matter what style they are groovin, it will surely get you movin'. AlyCat has toured the east coast and have shared the stage with Rusted Root, G. Love and Special Sauce, Kenny Rogers, Donald Byrd, Schleigo, Townhall and many, many more. Some of her influences include: anything with soul, Stevie Wonder, Nikka Costa, N'Dea Davenport, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Diane Reeves, Ella Fitzgerald, Billy Holiday, Phish, Jamiroquai, Stuart Zender, Mike Gordon, Bootsy Collins and James Jamerson.
