Living Space is a musical entity that has been in existence since the mid-90s. In the past sometimes a band, sometimes solo , and currently a duo. What remains constant is the songwriting and smooth vocal delivery of Ronnie Cato. Trevor Contreras also lends a lyrical brand of guitar layering that support the melodically driven songs. Some songs have tinges of rock, punk, soul, folk and sometimes jazz. The current duo configuration has been playing around the Bay Area in 2006 honing their chemistry to a dynamic formula of pop/rock sweetness.
There are plans to go back to the studio to create a new recording that will capture the more intimate side of their sound. Be on the lookout for Living Space before it changes on you again.
