The 30-year veteran has toured the USA, UK and Europe dozens of times to wide acclaim, headlining major music festivals, and appearing with legends John Lee Hooker, Ray Charles, Robert Cray, Koko Taylor, Taj Mahal , Leo Kottke, Jessie Mae Hemphill, Johnny Shines and many, many others.

One of the most exciting guitarists of any genre." -Acoustic Guitar

"One of the finest acoustic bluesmen in America. 
Every fan of acoustic blues should
have all of his discs in their collection. 
Every record label in America should be engaged

in a bidding war. This man is flat-out spectacular!"   -Big City Blues

Catfish's Sweet Pea:

Penny, That Girl!    "Thanks to my true-hearted wife and manager Penny Cahill for all of her devotion and love over our twenty years together. She has been nothing but supportive and true and believed in me always. Lesser people would have given up on me, but she's always been there, solid as a rock. Her hard work and dedication to realizing our dream continually amazes me, I wouldn't have been here if it wasn't for Penny. I'm the luckiest man in the world. Thank you, thank you, thank you Penny!"
     your lovin' man, Catfish Keith
