The Licata Brothers

Jimmy and Tony Licata, also known as The Licata Brothers, have been an inspirational rock duo in the Greater Los Angeles (CA) Area since they made their debut at open microphone nights in 2010 at the ages of 12 and 9 years old. Their home base as professional musicians, and the environment in which they were nurtured by some of the best studio musician talent in the industry, is the storied Altadena Coffee Gallery Backstage, just north of Pasadena, California. In this premiere acoustic and intimate 50-seat venue that hosts national and international touring talent several times a week, these classically-trained young musicians quickly absorbed the best of the Great American Songbook, while also embracing the musical heritage of optimistic, forward-looking young people with a world citizen mentality (their parents are European American and Peruvian). Their live performances are a musical mélange of beloved tunes from the classical rock period (and much earlier), lively upbeat originals with a modern edge and an occasional pop tune sung in one of the foreign languages of their devoted culturally diverse audiences. They have also been fortunate to carry their hopeful music in their world travels, playing at hosted events and on the streets in places as diverse as Calgary and Banff (Canada), Dublin, Reykjavik, Barcelona, Haifa (Israel), Panama City (Panama) and Santiago, Chile.
