The Yale Alley Cats

Who Are We?

For more than eight decades, the Yale Alley Cats have brought jazz standards, Motown, pop, and musical theatre to stages in their signature tailcoats. Founded in 1943, the group is known for the polish of its arrangements, the precision of its musicality, and the energy and showmanship that have become the group’s signature quality.
