DUBCATS were born out of Dub Honey & Foxys love of dub/reggae. They came together after a jam session when guitar legend Paul Fox (formerly of THE RUTS) realized the potential in Dub Honeys hypnotic, mesmeric bass lines. They were joined by Phats and Tom Massey on guitar. Rudi (who also plays with MAX ROMEO & MAD PROFESSOR) plays keyboard in a much sought after style of his own. SMILING ROOTS also adds his own influence on keyboard. Lady Flame & Locksman provide incredible vocal hooks with a strong, spiritual message of peace, love & harmony whilst also making us aware of the influences that try to distract us from this. Finally, they were joined by Bampy, an accomplished drummer with a unique style who worked with Paul Fox nearly 30 years ago when he played with MISTY IN ROOTS. Both MISTY IN ROOTS and THE RUTS became a major force in ROCK AGAINST RACISM and developed a very strong cross over audience. Who would have known that the spirit would bring him full circle to a band that Foxy put together in his last days? The DUBCATS album, due to be released soon displays a merging of style and culture and is sadly the last works of the never-to-be-forgotten PAUL FOX. Guest artists include RICHIE RICH & BARITONE JOHN of BAD MANNERS, LEROY MAFIA, U BROWN, GEMSTONE, DR DAS & NATTY RAG. The album tracks are being mixed by various producers including MAD PROFESSOR, DENNIS BOVELL, DR DUB & more. For upcoming shows they have recently been joined by live sound engineer PREACHER who has nearly 30 years experience in the reggae industry dubbing up many artists such as MAX ROMEO & JOHN HOLT.
