Cats on a Smooth Surface is an American rock group, that starting in 1978 and throughout the 1980's was the house band at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, New Jersey
In the years 1981 and 1982 , the band's lineup consisted of Bobby Bandiera on lead guitar and vocals, Harry Filkin on rhythm guitar and vocals, Peter Schulle on keyboards and vocals, John Micco on bass guitar and vocals, Pete Gagen on drums, and Ray Planet on saxophone.[1] Other band members through the years have included Glen Burtnick, Ray Andersen, Vincent Danielle, and Mike Bovenzi. The band is still in existence and performs regularly in New Jersey.
Starting in the spring of 1982 Bruce Springsteen often performed with the band, particularly on Sunday nights when he would appear unannounced at the Stone Pony and jump up on stage with them.[1][2][3] . He often claimed to the press that they were his favorite band to jam with[citation needed]
