The Sheldon Presents HUDSON AND THE HOODOO CATS 4/16@11am
The Sheldon presents Hudson and the Hoo Doo Cats, Saturday, April 16, 2011 at 11 a.m. in the perfect acoustics of the Sheldon Concert Hall. Self-described "JumpSwinginRockinBoogieBluesaBilly" band Hudson and the Hoo Doo Cats are St. Louis favorites, performing swinging blues, 50's era rock and roll, rockabilly and dance music, as well as original songs penned by founder and songwriter, Hudson Harkins.
After years of touring regionally and playing thousands of club dates, Hudson and the Hoo Doo Cats' experience and professionalism are reflected in their ability to adapt to any performing environment, as they have shared the stage with artists such as Chuck Berry, the Brian Setzer Orchestra and the Royal Crown Revue. Hudson Harkins fronts the band as lead vocalist and drummer. An Austin native of 39 years, his originals are strongly influenced by Austin 's eclectic music scene and St. Louis ' historical blues and roots traditions. Lead guitarist since 1994, John Logan's commanding style is featured on an old Gibson archtop or a Fender Strat. Slap bassist, Mike Graham, who joined the band in 1999, plays a rare 1930's aluminum upright with great showmanship.
