She sees you, she gets you, and she wants to bring a healing joy to your heart through her music.
 
About The Lucky Losers:
https://www.theluckylosers.com/

Winners of five Independent Blues Award in 2021 including “Artist of the Year” (Cathy Lemons), “Song of the Year” (Godless Land), “The Lucky Losers are San Francisco’s finest male/female duet fronted band —  a throwback to the hybrid of soul, blues, rock, gospel, and country that emerged in the late 1960’s with impassioned vocal performances, electrifying musical interplay, and powerful harmonica.

Described as “the finest light-skinned female blues vocalist in the U.S” [Real Blues - 2010], fiery Dallas-born entertainer Cathy Lemons has a velvet voice with a gritty edge and the rebel conviction of a woman risen from the ashes. New Jersey native Phil Berkowitz "has earned renown as one of the West Coast’s most distinctive harp players, as well as for his sharp, resonant tenor" [Living Blues - 2018]. The stark contrast between incandescent Lemons and elegant Berkowitz makes for a captivating musical union, breathing new life into American songwriting tradition and the vanishing art of duet singing.

About CCsegeR - Tribute to Bob Seger and CCR:
https://www.ccseger.com/

This 6-piece band (formerly known as "Night Moves/Creedence Classic Revival") gives a high-energy live performance of two amazing tribute bands in one. We take audiences on a ride through the rock and roll classics of Seger and CCR that drives crowds of all ages to the dance floor.

CCsegeR brings a signature richness and power to the music that Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band have been making for over four decades. The Seger signature sound represents the honest and best of what rock and roll can be. One of Michigan’s finest, Seger soaked up the muscular rock and roll and seductive soul for which Detroit remains famous and defines a musical voice for the American heartland. CCsegeR brings it all to the stage in an explosive live show that reminds us that rock-n-roll never forgets.

There isn’t any music more classic or Americana than that of San Francisco’s own Creedence Clearwater Revival. Cranking out hit after hit, their southern rock style sensibility made them possibly the most popular band in America with chart topping success and CCR’s music is still a staple of US radio today. CCsegeR captures the sound and recreates what the music was all about leaving you dancing and singing along to every song.
