So in 2026, you only will get to see them maybe two times in Sacramento if you are lucky. PLUS Marcel Smith, Alabama Mike & Kyle Rowland! Larger-than-life blues star Rick Estrin has piloted the wildly fun and musically fearless Rick Estrin & The Nightcats for the last eighteen years, touring the world and proving night after night why they have a shelf full of awards. The limitless combined talents of blues harmonica virtuoso and sly, soulful singer Estrin, guitar mastermind Kid Andersen, keyboard wizard Lorenzo Farrell and endlessly creative drummer Derrick "D'Mar" Martin take Estrin's inventive, original songs to new and unexpected places. On stage, the band's ability to deliver an unpredictable, no-holds-barred show is unmatched. "This band is the best in the land...superior songwriting infused with wit, humor, and streetwise insights, traditional and adventurous grooves, impeccable musicianship, creative arrangements, harmonica tutorials and savvy production...funky and original...always fresh and vital." —Blues Music Magazine "Rick Estrin & The Nightcats are a formidable force. They sound better than ever [playing] stellar rockabilly, jazz, blues and rock, often in the same song, creating a unique, time-tested sound rooted in the past, bolstered by harpist/vocalist Estrin's time-warping original compositions." —No Depression "Estrin defines his own brand of hip. Original blues and vintage rock-style tunes also harbor his superb harmonica work. Estrin emotes with just the right mix of kitsch and sincerity. The current litter of 'Cats, including guitarist Kid Andersen, reigns as the best band anywhere." —DownBeat -- *A portion of the net proceeds will be donated to SBS' Little Charlie Baty Memorial Music Scholarship.
