Don’t miss an exhilarating evening of global jazz fusion as LehCats, the dynamic New York-based ensemble led by Norbert Stachel (woodwinds) and Karen Stachel (flute/vocals), brings their electrifying sound to Meyhouse Jazz. Joining them are three West Coast heavyweights: Dan Feiszli on bass, Irving Flores on piano, and Phil Hawkins on drums.

Known for their genre-blending style and intricate compositions, LehCats fuses jazz with funk, Afro-Cuban, Caribbean, Middle Eastern, and Latin American rhythms to create music that is richly layered and rhythmically powerful. Their name—“Stachel” spelled backward—is a symbol of their creative and unconventional approach to sound.

With acclaimed albums like Movement to Egalitaria and Out of the Bag, LehCats has built a reputation for pushing the boundaries of contemporary jazz while staying rooted in themes of unity, social justice, and celebration. Their live shows are vibrant and emotionally resonant, moving audiences across continents and cultures without ever leaving their seat.
