Little Wolf, aka Malik Shabazz, has been singing and playing the blues all of his life. During his lengthy career, he has shared the stage with musical legends Jimmy McCracklin, Johnny Otis, Pee Wee Crayton, and John Lee Hooker, and many others. Now Little Wolf has teamed up with the Hellcats, a tight-knit groove machine that is guaranteed to bring the house down at every show!!

Video of our show at the Vacaville Creek Walk Concert: WATCH NOW
This was a great event. We were really surprised by the turnout and enthusiasm of this town. We are told that there were over 3000 people at this concert, and we were the only band. The weather was great, the sound was great, and the fans were great. Thanks Vacaville, hope to see you again next year!

Festivals in June 2008:
Little Wolf and the Hellcats played two festivals in June: the Novato Art, Wine, and Music Festival; and the Vacaville Creekwalk Summer Consert Series. The Vacaville show drew 3000+ people to the Little Wolf only early evening music event. Needless to say we were very happy to be there and the crowd seems pretty pleased as well.
