Sample the Cat is a rising soulful rock band from Berkshire County, MA. Their original music captures audiences with a fusion of familiar sounds from blues, funk, and soul while producing a fresh rock vibe that grooves. If you were to "put the cat in the box," their sound could be described as if Alicia Keys sang for Foo Fighters.
