The Nightcats: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About The Nightcats

The Nightcats are a rock/pop group heard in New York City rooms like Iridium, where tight arrangements and a working-band discipline suit the close listening environment. They are frequently billed in collaboration with blues harmonica player Rick Estrin, including appearances under the title “Rick Estrin & The Nightcats.” Their sets draw on the language of American roots music while keeping a pop sense of structure. The performances favor groove and clarity over spectacle.
