It started in the Chicago area in the early 1960s, with Madcat playing folk\/blues on guitar and harmonica. By the late 1960s he had immersed himself in the Chicago Blues and was studying harmonica with Big Walter Horton. In the early 1970s, Madcat moved to Ann Arbor, where he was a key presence in two of Ann Arbor's finest progressive rock bands: New Heavenly Blue and Sky King. By the mid 1970s Madcat was touring the world with jazz pianist Dave Brubeck. In the 1980s, Madcat went solo infusing the folk\/blues tradition with elements of rock and jazz. In 1990, Madcat teamed up with guitarist\/singer Shari Kane to form the duo Madcat & Kane. For twenty-four years, they toured nationally and internationally.\r\n\r\nTonight\u2019s celebration features Peter Madcat Ruth\u2019s C.A.R.Ma. Quartet with John Churchville on tabla, Brennan Andes on bass, and guitarist Dan Ripke. Special guests include Rachael Davis, Seth Bernard, Shari Kane, and Nashville based harmonica virtuoso Buddy Greene.\r\n\r\nPlease visit https:\/\/mutotix.umich.edu\/4632\/4633 for more detail.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"117648-21839792@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/117648", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":"ARK Reserved", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"$30 - $38", "tags":["Ark","Mutotix"], "website":"https:\/\/mutotix.umich.edu\/4632\/4633", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)", "group_id":"1053", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/01\/event_117648_original-1.jpeg" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21839792 } }
