A while back, Atlanta entertainment newspaper, Creative Loafing, wrote an article entitled "99 Things to Do to Call Yourself a True Atlantan". No. 6 is:
"Go see Mudcat at the Northside Tavern. He knows more about folk blues than Martin Scorsese, will happily sing "Up Against the Wall" for you, and can probably drink you under the table to boot."
Danny "Mudcat" Dudeck has been playing folk blues in Atlanta and around the globe since the late 1980's. His home base is Northside Tavern, where he plays either solo or with his band the last weekend of almost every month. But he's also played in New Orleans, in New York, in Costa Rica, in Switzerland..the blues is a universal language, and Mudcat speaks it fluently. He's known for his skillful slide guitar and honored as an expert entertainer.
Jeff Clark, in Stomp and Stammer, said:
"MUDCAT have always been one of Atlanta's most reliable and enjoyable live acts, with an
appeal extending from blues enthusiasts to the jam crowd to regular drunks like you and me.:
So do yourself a favor, and go see Mudcat at Northside Tavern or at one of their other gigs in the metro area. Call yourself a true Atlantan, and make your blues self happy!
