Live Music: Jeff Bearcat Bunch

Jeff BearCat Bunch—known to fans simply as “BearCat”—is a soulful Americana singer-songwriter originally from East Tennessee whose music blends roots, blues, and folk storytelling with a wandering troubadour’s spirit.

Now performing across the South and beyond, including in Texas venues like Gruene, his songs explore the grit and redemption of life on the road with humor, humility, and heart.

With tracks such as “Figured I’d Trade My Troubles In For Songs” and “Payin’ Dues (The Sum I Owe)”, BearCat captures the timeless voice of a working musician—part philosopher, part drifter, and all authenticity.

His live performances are intimate and unvarnished, often delivered in unconventional settings that highlight his rugged charm and down-home sincerity.

Whether strumming solo or backed by a small band, Jeff BearCat Bunch delivers Americana storytelling at its most genuine—a mix of Southern wit, weathered honesty, and musical soul that resonates deeply with audiences wherever he plays.
