About the Band

River Cats are a Kingston-based 4-piece playing funk, rock, country, and pop built for busy dance floors and live rooms that want energy without chaos.

We perform at weddings, corporate events, festivals, private functions, and ticketed venues across Eastern Ontario. Each show is shaped to the room. We adjust set length, pacing, and volume based on the format and the crowd in front of us.

We perform primarily in English and can comfortably engage in French and Spanish, connecting with a wide range of audiences from the first song to the last.

Meet the Band

The musicians behind the music

Kiri has enjoyed music from a young age and loves to perform live. Originating from Cuba, she developed her skills as a vocal coach and resort performer, entertaining guests from around the world singing classics from Whitney Houston, Adele and Celine Dion. Kiri now calls Kingston, Ontario home and brings powerhouse vocals and stage presence to every River Cats show.

G has been a lifelong lover of music. Growing up in Montreal, he polished his skills playing with bands at venues like The Moustache, The Maples Inn and Club Soda. Influenced by Steve Harris, Geezer Butler, Roger Glover and Geddy Lee, G has expanded into fusion, funk, blues and pop.

Greg brings years of rock-steady experience behind the kit. He has played a variety of genres from rock and reggae to blues and southern fried rock. Greg was a staple in the touring band Rockin Horse. After a few years on the road and a 30-year hiatus, he found his chops again with Stonecold Canada. A founding member of the River Cats, Greg anchors the rhythm section with precision and power.

Dave, known online as Recon or Recontastic, is a Canadian musician whose love affair with music traces back to his earliest days. The guitar quickly became an extension of his soul. Raised on 80s metal and 90s punk, he honed his skills in the online music scene and over the past 8 years has become a prominent fixture on Twitch.tv, captivating thousands of fans with spontaneous jams and infectious passion for all things musical.
