QUOTABLE PRESS QUOTES:
“Cats On Holiday is still purring after 20 years!”
THE PLAIN DEALER
“Cleveland swamp/roots rockers Cats on Holiday are known for their ability to get a party started and get people up on their feet and dancing. Vocalist/guitarist/band leader Denis DeVito and his band of merry men have been doing so for nearly 20 years.”
COOL CLEVELAND
"Reigning from the Cuyahoga River Valley on the shores of the great Lake Erie, this band has been pleasing crowds from bar rooms to outdoor festivals and concerts over the last 18 years. Armed with an arsenal of well-crafted original tunes and an eclectic blend of party songs, it’s hard for most listeners not to swing and sway."
VOICES IN THE VALLEY CONCERT SERIES
“High energy is a synonym for “good time,’’ DeVito and his bandmates have earned their spot, by virtue of the band’s longevity, willingness to tackle any gig and an extremely varied “swamp pop’’ song list.”
THE PLAIN DEALER
"The Swamp Poppin' outfit, Cats On Holiday, promise to rock your Cleveland Winter Blues away."
THE LAKEWOOD OBSERVER
“Over the years Cats on Holiday has evolved into Northeast Ohio’s go-to band for Texas and Louisiana-inspired blues and Zydeco sounds with Rust Belt songs detailing urban life!”
