Hi Cathy here. My current band is Rex Havoc from San Pedro .We didn’t disappear. We just took a break from each other to put it mildly. In 88, I started auditioning the girls who would answer the adds that ultimately led me to Sara, Karen and Robin. We were a foursome for 2 years. Then Karen introduced us to Sece and we just took off from there. In 91, Cathy won “Best Female Vocalist” and the song “Bigger Than Both of Us” won “Best Ballad”. Fortunately I was blessed and loved enough by my biker brothers in Topeka, Kansas to land a killer gig singing back up vocals for Black Oak Arkansas in the early 80’s. Yes the man himself, James Mangram. Jim Dandy to those in the know. He inspired me to write the song “Bigger Than Both of Us” Hector contact me if you need more scoop.
I noticed that the time and date stamp are off on the comment I just left on bandit. It reads 12/05/2009 @1:15am. My clock and calender say it is 5/11/2009 @5:15pm. Maybe it is my internal batterry on my PC. Not sure. Anyway. Rock on sisters!!!
