20+ years experience as a seasoned professional vocalist with a diverse musical style, successfully combining Rock, Pop, Country, Blues and Jazz. Cat has shared the stage with the Ray Charles Orchestra, ZZ Top, the Crash Test Dummies, Jeff Healey and many others. Her uncanny ability to mimic voices has lead her to give hair raising performances as Janis Joplin, Tina Turner, Joan Jett, Stevie Nicks and others.
Such a wonderful evening. Great music
Response from Cat Wells:
Hey Alysha,
Thanks for the positive review. I hope you all had a great celebration and don't have too bad of a hang-over today LOL. Can you please pass my contact information on to Julie. I meant to give it to her before I left.
Cheers,
Cat

Response from Cat Wells:
Thank you Marlene, You and your neighbours were a pleasure to perform for. What a great hood you live in.
Cat played background music for us during a dinner party for 20 people. She played and sang beautifully and we would definitely book her again.
Cat is a creative entertainer, she brings a very fun spirit to an event and we would most happily book her again!
Cat was fantastic!
We hired her for my parent’s vow renewal where she played for the ceremony and party afterwards. She played all of their favourite songs and her voice is absolutely amazing. The party did not stop!
We look forward to hiring Cat again for any future events we host!
Response from Cat Wells:
Michelle, thank you so much for letting me be a part of your mom and dads special day. They are blessed to have you as a daughter. All of your guests were super friendly and so generous. It would be my absolute pleasure to perform for any of you again. (I'm still nibbling on the care package) ;)
We had a great time. Cat was excellent, would highly recommend
We had Cat Wells play at our family reunion.
She was punctual, prepared, friendly, and an excellent entertainer.
She exceeded our expectation as she sounds better then the clips we watched
of her online. We would definitely have her again for another event.
Highly recommended!

Vocalist Cat Wells is a musical tour-de-force. Born in Toronto, she climbed out of the womb singing and found early heroes in Billie Holiday, Etta James and Janis Joplin. With over 20 years as a seasoned professional vocalist, Cat brings an abundance of experience to each show. She has a diverse musical style, successfully combining Pop, Country, Bluegrass, Rock, Funk, Jazz and Blues. Amongst her long list of credits, Cat has shared the stage with the Ray Charles Orchestra, ZZ Top, the Crash Test Dummies and Jeff Healey. She has performed for audiences as large as 10,000 with her blues band “PHAT Betty”, wowed communities as she fronted the 15 piece Funk band “Soul Function” and performed along side the 35 piece Okanagan Symphony Orchestra. She has performed in venues stretching across North American and Europe and throughout the Caribbean. Her uncanny ability to mimic voices has lead her to give hair raising performances as Janis Joplin, Tina Turner, Joan Jett, Stevie Nicks and others.
Although she enjoys fronting a live band, Cat has also compacted her talent in to a one woman show playing guitar and belting out tunes from every genre and era. Whether it’s an acoustic ballad or a ballsy Pop tune enhanced by tasteful backing tracks, Cat delivers a wide variety of material sure to please everyone’s tastes. Cat loves to involve her audience and encourages them to look through her song list to request favorites, jump on the mic to sing along and even sit in if they play an instrument. Throw in a little humor and hand full of audience participation and you’ve got a recipe for a packed house full of happy clientele.
Looking for a little more? Cat also performs as a duo, trio or with her Blues Band PHAT Betty and her tribute band Metal Stiletto.
