Jeff has lived in the Pittsburgh area for over 30 years and grew up in a musical family. His father taught him his first guitar chords at the age of nine and his love of music performance grew from there with him achieving proficiency in most brass instruments, including the Mellophone, Trumpet, and the French horn. Inspired by artists like Pinetop Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis and Ray Charles, Jeff pursued playing Blues piano as his main forte and has now mastered Blues guitar. Jeff has performed with many local bands including Eugene and the Nightcrawlers, Angel Blue and the Prophets, The Sidewinders, The Dave Iglar Band, Billy the Kid and the Regulators and The Jimmy Adler Band.

Born and raised in the Pittsburgh area Kevin has enjoyed drums since the age of eight playing in school Jazz band, marching band, and orchestra. After many years of sitting in at local open stage nights and playing in several garage bands, Kevin got his first opportunity to play with Eugene and the Nightcrawlers. After a few years with Eugene he helped form a band called The Sidewinders. Now laying down the rhythmic backbone for The Phat Cats, Kevin’s talent and love of the Blues will be on the Pittsburgh music scene for years to come.
