LEVI LLOYD on Guitar & Vocals is a blues veteran.  He's played with B. B. King, John Lee Hooker and toured worldwide as the longtime guitarist for the legendary Joe Louis Walker. When not with BCAT he fronts an active classic soul outfit Levi Lloyd & the 501s.  Levi's well-worn '68 Les Paul guitar and lowdown vocals tell it all.  Talk to Levi at 707/235-7521.


Scott "CHARTERMAN" Charter on Drums is simply a force of nature.  Full of energy and good cheer Charterman may be the Bay Area's most musical drummer.  He grooves like a son-of-a-gun with snare and cymbal work that pops and swings powering the music along like a steam engine.  He's played with everyone from Andy Williams to classical orchestras.  Some of his early work can be found on "garage bands of the 60s" collections and still gets airplay.  Scott is also an accomplished visual artist.


J.B. DAVIS on Bass & Vocals is all about the mix - blues, swing, jump, twang, bossa nova, doo-wop, 3-minute singles & trad jazz ballads.  He's played with The Sheiks of R&B, Sugarshack, Kenny "Blue" Ray & The Hoorays and long ago with the pedal steel led band Tex LaMountain and the Al Kooper produced group Appaloosa.


RON LACEY on Keys & Vocals played music before he could walk.  Jazz piano is his first love but he's done it all in a range of styles.  He's a smooth, soulful, powerful singer with a knack for resurrecting great tunes that don't deserve to die.  Oh and he's blessed with perfect pitch!  Ron's passion and exuberance are clear in his playing and in his work as a piano teacher. When not on keys with BCAT, at venues all over the Bay Area, Ron does a wonderful night of solo classic jazz standards - cool as can be and guaranteed to fill your heart with joy.  Talk to Ron at 707/326-3415.
