BLACK CATS NYC

Out of the ashes of a pre-gentrified lower east side come the BLACK CATS NYC. A guitar driven Rock 'n’ Roll band straight off the streets of New York City that brings it hard, loud, & raw. This quartet performs with the vibe and style of Johnny Thunders' Heartbreakers, the tongue-in-cheek power of AC/DC, and an IV full of Chuck Berry and Eddie Cochran on a constant drip. Their songs are straightforward and dynamic, taking it back to when cool was king and grit ruled the airwaves. 

BLACK CATS NYC are: Andrew Giordano: Vocals/ Rhythm Guitar, Francesco D’Ambrosio: Lead Guitar, Moby Medina: Bass Guitar, and Jason Reddish: Drums. Put your club clothes on, grab that someone special, and "Come Along for the Ride!”

BLACK CATS NYC teamed up with Corey Zack of Cocoon Studios in Jersey City, NJ to record the band’s debut full length release Free Cake. It rocks hard with 9 original tunes and two covers, Cry Baby by The Waldos and their take on the Elvis classic Hard Headed Woman. Produced by Giordano and Zack, the icing on the Free Cake was having it mastered by Joe Lambert of Joe Lambert Mastering. The band was well rehearsed, so little time was wasted, except for the occasional espresso break. Joined by Alex Giordano on Piano/ Organ & Emma Craig on backing vocals, each track was recorded live with only a few takes and some overdubs. 

Dirty Little Hipster, released July 10, 2020, was the album's first single. A gritty, hard rocking number, written by Giordano while he was back in "the old neighborhood" people watching. It is also the first video from the release. 

Free Cake was released worldwide on November 13th,2020 and is streaming loud on your favorite service - including Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music, Amazon Music, SoundCloud, YouTube Music, Tidal, Deezer, & Tik Tok! The album is available for pre-order at Amazon, iTunes, or direct at blackcatsnyc.com.
