Cathy Faber loves to sing and play Western Swing and Retro Country Music that folks can listen and dance to. In May 2010, she formed “Cathy Faber’s Swingin’ Country Band”, as lead singer and upright bassist with Augé Hays on pedal steel and lead vocals, George Langston on acoustic and electric guitars and harmony vocals, and Britt Alexander on drums. They punch out great versions of Western Swing, Retro Country, and Blues/Folk/Rock covers that were never over-played on the top 10 radio stations. Cathy’s smooth vocals, taste in music, and the whole band’s contagious sense of fun set them apart as one of Northern New Mexico’s most enjoyable dance bands.
