SCAT CATS at Red Room on March 8, 2013
The Dance Committee under the auspices of the Friends of the Kingsport Senior Center is proud to announce the booking of Scat Cats and the Welles Brothers for the March Dance. The Scat Cats were a premier dance band arising in the old Douglas High School in Kingsport while the Welles brothers are from Bluff City. Longtime fans of the bands may remember them from a variety of names. Each band formed nearly 50 years ago, built on styles based around horn sections and a rhythm and blues backbone. The Wells Brothers featured a more vocals-heavy style, while the Scat Cats were more instrumental-based. Several members have been replaced over the years, but the spirit and sounds from this group persist. Donnie Flack was the original drummer and notes: “We run the gamut from the 1950s on up to the ’90s. We do beach music, Creedence Clearwater Revival’s ‘Proud Mary,’ Van Morrison tunes, the Temptations, James Brown. We’ll do Motown, Stax, Sam and Dave."
The Flacks, who founded the Scat Cats, and the Wells Brothers are family – cousins. Neither Wells and his brothers nor his cousins in the Scat Cats became household names from coast to coast. But they sure played shows well beyond the Tri-Cities -- Miami, New York, Detroit, Cleveland, Washington, D.C. – they got around. Music was their ticket.
Come out and welcome this group on March 8, 2013. Line dancing will begin at 6:30 PM with the band starting at 7:00 PM. Admission is $8.00 per person or $15.00 per couple. Please DO NOT bring food to this dance. A concession stand is available.
THE RED ROOM is located at Highway I-81, Exit 66, 234 Carolina Pottery Drive, Blountville.
