About The Twin Cats
The Twin Cats are a 5-Piece Jazz/Funk band based out of Indianapolis, Indiana. The band was formed in 1998 by identical twins, Adam (drums) and Seth (guitar/vocals) Catron. In 2002, Cameron Reel (bass guitar) and Phil Geyer (keyboards) were added to the group. After playing together for almost 2 years, The Twin Cats decided to add a new dimension to their music by bringing in Nick Gerlach (sax/flute), ultimately completing The Twin Cats' sound.

The Twin Cats have played at multiple venues throughout the Midwest. From intimate settings to outdoor festivals, this group loves to entertain!! Playing festivals such as Summer Camp, F.U.N.K. Festival, and Indiana Jam Bash has given the band a great opportunity to share the bill with some of the top touring acts in the country such as Umphrey's McGee, Garaj Mahal, Medeski Martin and Wood, Victor Wooten, Galactic, Dirty Dozen Brass Band and many others.

Best recognized for their innovative jams and funky grooves, and they never have trouble engaging a crowd. The Twin Cats continue to gain popularity with every show that they play... See for yourself, and check out their next show...


About Midwest Hype
Midwest Hype was born over six years ago in a small town in Indiana , part of “Harbor Country.” LaPorte , IN served as the backdrop for their spark of creation, which evolved into a real force of music at Ball State University in Muncie , IN. The college environment provoked more musical exploration and genuine commitment as musicians—matured by their environment, independence and the integration of new members enrolled in the BSU school of music. Each band member's unique education, focus and skills come together to form one of the most promising young bands in the nation—several of which perform regularly with various Jazz bands, including international tours throughout Europe. They produce a sound that both provokes thought and stirs the soul to get out of your seat and throw up your hands and dance, intertwining distinct music and lyric genres erupting into an entirely original and unique blend free from the stereotypical constraints of individual genres, giving all music fans something to enjoy. Songwriting is brought to live with exacting, blended precision and skill beyond the eddy-circling confines of the jam-band, enveloping and embracing audiences to travel along side them on a physical and spiritual journey of innovation from the launching pad of polished studio music production into superbly engaging stage performances. As full and cohesive their sound, each member is an individual with distinct and unique persona’s deep-rooted in their genuine Midwest upbringings seasoned with the flavor of their generation. As honest as they are with themselves and their music, they are unrelentingly funny people to be around—positive, fun-loving spirits that bring freshness and love to life.
