J.P. & the Cats

Party Band

J.P. and the Cats have performed all across the United States and Canada. In the last 5 years, they have appeared with such rock and roll legends as Joe Cocker, Chubby Checker, Joan Jett, The Temptations, Pat Benetar, Kansas, Jewel, Slash, The Grass Roots, and The Marshall Tucker Band. Their performances at practically every major college in the midwest have made their wild antics legendary. From the funky disco rhythms of Rufus Love, to outrageous rock & roll, and Sci-Fi Elvi, the Cats deliver the entertainment experience everybody enjoys.

JP and the Cats make over 160 appearances a year, performing at major city concerts such as The Taste of Chicago, On the Waterfront in Rockford, Milwaukee Summerfest, Art Splash in Sioux City IA., and the 95th Hog (Harley) Festival.  Corporate events as well as block parties keep them  hippin' and a hoppin', and you can catch them  performing regularly at various clubs throughout Chicagoland and the Midwest.
