The pairing of Tuck Andress' virtuoso jazz guitar and wife Patti Cathcart's lush vocals has earned favorable comparisons to such famed duos as Joe Pass and Ella Fitzgerald. Equally comfortable playing jazz standards, pop favorites (they cover everything from Jimi Hendrix to Al Green) and well-crafted originals, Tuck and Patti have been have been dazzling audiences for over 20 years.

Blessed with a warm, rich voice, Cathcart and her nimble, honey-toned delivery are well matched with Tuck Andress' guitar artistry. Employing an unusual technique of plucking, strumming and slapping the strings (often with both hands), Andress can make his guitar sound like several people playing together. This intimate jazz duo is recognized the world over for their passion-filled music and extraordinarily powerful live shows.
