…in 2021 (including “Artist of the Year” – Cathy Lemons & “Song of the Year” Godless Land“), The Lucky Losers are San Francisco’s no. 1 touring band.

Their music is a throwback to the hybrid of soul, blues, rock, gospel, and country that emerged in the late 1960s with impassioned vocal performances, electrifying musical interplay, and powerful harmonica.

Described as “the finest female blues vocalist in the U.S” [Real Blues – 2010], fiery Dallas-born entertainer Cathy Lemons has a velvet voice with a gritty edge and the rebel conviction of a woman risen from the ashes. New Jersey native Phil Berkowitz “has earned renown as one of the West Coast’s most distinctive harp players, as well as for his sharp, resonant tenor” [Living Blues – 2018]. The stark contrast between incandescent Lemons and elegant Berkowitz makes for a captivating musical union, breathing new life into American songwriting tradition and the vanishing art of duet singing.

Since 2015, The Lucky Losers have completed numerous national tours, performing on stages in over 46 states. Their artistic achievements have garnered 6 award wins, 22 award nominations, & two International Songwriting Competition prizes as Finalists.
