What can I say?  It’s beginning to look a lot like HannuKwanaXmas.

Whether you celebrate one special holiday or are a solstice ‘equal opportunity enjoyer’, live Blues is bound to bring a joyful lift.

So get ready to ring in 2025 with no project beside sharing a rollickin’ good roll with the soulful guitar licks and sax solos that light up the Wildcat O’Halloran Blues Band. From Greg Allman to Bo Diddley, John Lee Hooker to James Cotton, the Wildcat has shared stages with legends. In the process he’s become a force of nature in the valley, hosting weekly Noho Blues Jams, and featured in the Valley Advocate’s Sessions series. His talented bandmates/co-conspirators in rhythm and rhyme include: Will Smith on Sax, Phil Govan on Bass, George Perrault on Drums, (and perhaps a guest harmonica player) Please see below for list of CD’s, reviews, and links.
