Bob Crosby And The Bob Cats
Band formed c.a. 1935, from a bigger orchestra (with musicians such as Yank Lawson, Matty Matlock and Dean Kincaide). Crosby's "band-within-the-band," the Bob-Cats, was an authentic New Orleans Dixieland-style jazz octet featuring soloists drawn from the larger orchestra, many of whom were from New Orleans or were heavily influenced by the music of the Crescent City. Billed as Bob Crosby And The Bob Cats.
