Duluth’s premier acoustic cat-rock duo is ready to pounce back onto the Homegrown stage. With a lifetime of keys under his paws, Matt Sjelin turns the keyboard into his personal scratching post, while Sean Mahoney’s ever-curious spirit shines through every guitar strum. Together, The Trash Cats deliver a finely tuned mix of catchy originals and tender 90s alt-rock covers. Their harmonies are tight, the sound is dialed in, and the chemistry is undeniable, honed over years of performing side by side. This long-standing duo doesn’t just play songs; they stalk the groove, purr through the melodies, and leave the stage marked as their own.
