Sabrina Weeks & Swing Cat Bounce is an act that needs to be seen.  Offering up a generous helping of the Swinging Bouncing Boogie Blues is what Sabrina Weeks & Swing Cat Bounce do.  The show is dynamic, the players are exceptional, and the grooves drive until you’re swingin’, bouncin’ and getting’ your boogie on.  The songs are lighthearted with a twist of naughty, the melodies are infectious, and it is abundantly apparent when watching this group that they truly love what they are doing.   Hailing from British Columbia, Canada, this group collectively makes up over 100 years of musical expertise.  The band members include Sabrina Weeks, Mike Hilliard, Ed Hilliard, Bill White, and Ken Sell.

In 2010, Sabrina Weeks & Swing Cat Bounce released its debut CD, Tales from Lenny’s Diner.  The CD debuted at #1 in Canada, #12 globally on the Roots Music Report Blues Music charts, peaking at #6 on the global blues charts in March 2011. Further, the CD made the top 100 RMR list for most radio plays globally for 2011.  Tales from Lenny’s Diner has been rated in the top 100 new CDs released in 2010/2011 according to the Real Blues “Top of the Charts” report and voted as the #1 CD released for 2010 by CFBX and best new artist for 2010 by the Blues Underground.  Also, their song “Bad Boys” charted at #2 on BB Kings Bluesville for March '11.  More, Sabrina Weeks & Swing Cat Bounce have been nominated by BCIMA for the “Blues Album of the Year” Award in 2011.  Last but not least, Sabrina Weeks will be featured as one of the headliners for the prestigious Women in Blues Review being held at Massey Hall in Toronto in November.
