Local band jazzes up coffeehouse

The Scuba Kats, a band born at MCC and composed of students who enjoy performing jazz, blues and other music from the ‘30s through the ‘60s, gave a free performance at the Jazzland Cyber Café April 8.
The band started last year and is managed by Kristine Makris, who also teaches music, business and humanities. Since then, the band has played numerous venues that include clubs, coffee shops and retirement homes. They have also played for college events.
Makris said one of the group’s primary roles is to be ambassadors to the community. When they go out and perform, they show what the largest music department at the largest community college can do. “I have not found another group that is self-contained completely,” she added.
