THE CATS

The Cats were a rock band from Volendam, The Netherlands. together with BZN, they were key figures of what came to be called the Palingsound (eel-sound), an umbrella for artists residing in Volendam (the country's top seafood city).

The band began life as two separate duos: Cees Veerman (born October 6, 1943) and Arnold Muhren (born January 28, 1944) who started in a skiffle band; and cousins Piet Veerman (born March 1, 1943) and Jaap Schilder (born January 9, 1943) who modelled themselves after the Everly Brothers. The duos merged and became The Mystic Four, with Cees Veerman and Piet Veerman on vocals/guitar, Schilder on guitar (and piano), and Muhren on bass. By 1965 they changed their name to The Blue Cats, a reference to the colour of their suits and Cees' nickname, Pussy. Dropping the 'Blue' from their name in 1966 they recruited drummer Theo Klouwer (June 30, 1947 - February 8, 2001).
