The distinct, high-energy blues harmonica of Dale "Catman" Ballard has been a part of the Michiana music scene since 1992. Drawing from Texas and Chicago influences, the band is sure to get listeners off their seats and on their feet. Catman & The-All Niters have two CD recordings under their belt so far, with a third to come out on Beezwax in the near future.

Joining Catman Ballard most recently are Rob Hutt (guitar and vocal), Steve Behr (bass and vocal), and Boris Larue (drums and vocal) - all three blending into the comprehensive grit and groove that make for a high energy, get-on-your-feet blues sound. Haven't heard them yet? Just wait till you show up for a show!

The band has several gigs on the books for 2012, to be posted here in the very near future. For the time being they are practicing new material and gearing up for another splendid year. Be sure to bookmark this page for quick access to the latest schedule. Meanwhile, check out their studio recordings:

BW37997: "Blues From The Heart," released in 1997.

BW2733A: "Top Shelf," released in 2010.

You may also want to consider booking the band for your own private party at home. The band is easy to work with. The rates surprisingly reasonable.

As always, Catman & The All-Niters wish all their fans and friends the very best in 2012 and in the years to come. Be sure to listen to Ole Harv's Blues Revue on WVPE 88.1 for the latest in blues music and blues news.
