Artist Portrait

Bob Crosby And The Bob Cats

Band,
Jazz

Band formed c.a. 1935, from a bigger orchestra (with musicians such as Yank Lawson, Matty Matlock and Dean Kincaide). Crosby's "band-within-the-band," the Bob-Cats, was an authentic New Orleans Dixieland-style jazz octet featuring soloists drawn from the larger orchestra, many of whom were from New Orleans or were heavily influenced by the music of the Crescent City.
