A Connecticut native whose roots are buried in the Rock/Blues.. started playing guitar at the age of eight years old. Finding his nitch he quickly developed his own style and feel for the blues. Not only does he know the blues, but also his approach is somewhat different than most. His in your face style and technical flair have other guitar players as well as musicians taking serious notice. Whether its a slow blues or a high-energy jump tune theres no stopping him. Sweet Eddie is an open channel that is constantly receiving his inspiration from the pioneers of the blues. Seeing is believing. Just turn him loose on stage and watch what happens. A TRUE STRATOCASTER OFFICIENATTO.
****DRUMS/VOCALS****
Tommy Sanchez
A Connecticut native, a true rock drummer at heart and master of all percussion channeled his talent to a Blues home, moved in, and resides next to the great drummers in his field. Learning drums at eight years of age he developed his skills by playing to all types of music. If there were awards given to consistency and style he would win every time. His lightning speed combined with his endless energy has produced a technique that only the best of the best possess. Tommy's skills only complement the rhythm section and as any musician knows that's a combination that can't be BEAT
****BASSGUITAR/VOCALS****
Scott Slogeris
Born and raised in CT. Been getting down and dirty with the bass for many years. Played in many bands from genres like top 40, metal, classic rock, 80's hair band and now THE BLUES! Once a master at the four string and now a 5 string. Played with local bands: Lynx, Different People, Flipside and Web of Addiction.
From the cellar, to the alleys, and now on the road, nobody rocks the blues like CROSSEYED CAT! With 15 years under their belt, this band has captivated audiences all over the New England area by their style and signature sound. They have taken the Rock/Blues to a new level that has fans, the press, and other musicians taking notice and singing praises. Call it fate, timing or just plain luck, some force put these musicians together for a reason and call that chemistry. When they take the stage you can feel the energy across the room even before the first note is struck. Not only do they give their best at each performance, they have built a large following for their original compositions and to be quite frank they can flat out play! All the band members compose, sing and play multiple instruments. They have taken the stage with the best of the national acts, whether it was Buddy Guy, Debbie Davies, or Chris Duarte, its always a crowd pleasure to have CROSSEYED CAT in the mix. But hey dont take my word for it, you should see these guys for yourself and you be the judge. Check out their calendar of events on the web at WWW.CROSSEYEDCAT.COM and find where to get your cat fix!
