Dear Cats Corner Friends,
MUSIC THIS WEDNESDAY
Steve Lucky & the Rhumba Bums featuring Miss Carmen Getit! Truly one
of the most sensational bands to hit our stage, the Rhumba Bums
deliver 30's, '40s & '50s-style swing, vintage jazz, jumpin' R & B,
blues, and original tunes featuring Steve Lucky on piano & vocals, and
Miss Carmen Getit on guitar. The band has been a familiar force in the
SF Bay Area swing scene as well as internationally, and we're excited
to have them back...especially following up on their electrifying show
last month!

In the DJ booth: swing dancer and accomplished jazz and classical
guitarist Leo King will exercise his discerning musical taste this
week, as he spins a fine selection of classic swing tunes, keeping you
in the mood to enjoy dancing and/or a cocktail at the bar!
