Catman & The All-Niters

SCHEDULE
NEW CD: "Top Shelf"
OLD CD: "Blues from the Heart"


Known as one of America's hardest working blues bands, Catman & The All Niters are out to show the world what high energy blues harmonica can do to move both soul and feet..

Dale "Catman" Ballard of Elkhart, Indiana formed the band in 1992, relying on a select group of musicians to set up the rhythm behind his energetic harmonica style. The band was renowned for its frequent appearances around Northern Indiana.

By year 2000 it was time to take a rest, so Catman went into "hibernation" until late 2008 when he re-formed the band, this time bringing Grammy Award winning bassist Johnny B. Gayden aboard to accompany former band members Steve Harris (guitar) and Boris Larue (drums). The result is a tight, high energy band ready to roll when it comes to blues energy.
