ALLIGATOR RECORDS RELEASES
TWISTED FROM RICK ESTRIN AND THE NIGHTCATS

Alligator Records has released Twisted, the debut release from Rick Estrin And The Nightcats.

For more than 30 years and nine albums, harmonica master/ vocalist/songwriter Rick Estrin fronted the jumping, swinging Little Charlie And The Nightcats, featuring guitarist Little Charlie Baty. With Baty’s recent retirement from touring, Estrin — along with the Nightcats’ longtime rhythm section of J. Hansen and Lorenzo Farrell and a new member, fiery guitarist Kid Andersen — takes the lead on his own. The band’s debut album, Twisted, while still swinging the blues, is a harmonica-driven, rocking, guitar-fueled rave-up. Featuring 14 songs (including 10 Estrin originals, two by Kid Andersen, one by Hansen, and a superb band-created instrumental), Twisted showcases Rick’s seemingly effortless command of the harmonica, his streetwise vocals and his remarkable original songs.
