The group consists of Jael Holzman, Bren Tyler (of Pretty Bitter, Nah.), Liam Hughes (of Silent Tides) and Stephen Yaeger.***COVID PolicyIn order to attend an event at the Black Cat we now require either proof of a COVID-19 vaccination, or proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken within the prior 48 hours.
