The spirit of Bob Dylan’s Rolling Thunder era lives on through The Bob Cats.

Based in Bob’s old stomping grounds of Woodstock NY, The Bob Cats bring to life the rock ’n’ roll spirit of the Dylan songbook, and the rich history he’s made in this area.

After performing together in various configurations at the Woodstock Bob Dylan Birthday Celebrations, The Bob Cats formed officially in 2021, quickly becoming  a regular attraction in Woodstock – packing rooms with enthusiastic audiences of locals and tourists.

Legendary rock drummer Jerry Marotta (Peter Gabriel, Hall & Oates) propels The Bob Cats with his undeniable groove, while life-long Dylan interpreters Doug Yoel and Kyle Esposito dig deep into the lyric and vocal performance of these classic tunes.  Kyle is the band’s resident guitar hero, whose roots-rock style contains echoes of Jerry Garcia and Robbie Robertson, with epic dynamics that are all his own.  Bruce Jay Milner (Every Mother’s Son) plays piano and organ, and sings beautifully in the group.  Rob Stein (The Mammals, Bob Dylan band) adds a layer of dreaminess with his pedal steel mastery, and Chuck Cornelis (Chris Isaak) lays down an authoritative bass groove.   

Together, The Bob Cats explore Dylan’s best loved tunes and deep cuts, and all of the sonic variations that made Bob’s concerts so engaging throughout the decades.  

Bottom line – The Bob Cats deliver a most satisfying rock ’n’ roll celebration of the brilliant Bob Dylan songbook!
