RonKat is a vocalist/musician with George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic. RonKat joined GCPF in 2001. He has toured the world with GCPF every year since. The experience has enriched his talents and pushed his skills to even higher levels of achievement.
In the past few years, RonKat released his FUNKY NATION, CHEDDAR, LITTLE MONSTERS, and JOY TO THE FUNK CDs. Each CD has its own distinctive mood and style which display RonKat's versatility and abilities. The common thread is shear excellence and masterful songs with immediate hooks, tasty lyrics and tracks; all of which are written, produced and performed by RonKat Spearman.

"It's all about the beats for me, coupled with a cold melody and good lyrics. I like to keep my mind open to the pulse of the people because it inspires me whether I am writing a love song, dance song or working on my Katdelic Music." - RonKat

RonKat created KATDELIC: a High Energy, Funky, Rockin', All-Original dance-driven Live Music show that has the club scene abuzz with excitement. KATDELIC has an innovative & unique funklectik sound and "Makes 'em Dance." RonKat Spearman is an artist with a dynamic stage presence, an amazing voice, solid playing skills, remarkable versatility and superb musical direction.

RONKAT's music is a combination of funk and rock. Bridging unbelievably tasteful elements of multi-genres in a musical blend of pure magic, KATDELIC draws bits of hip hop, touches of gospel and soul-jazz funk into a rockin' heavy dance-charged hard pop fusion all its own. Think PRINCE, ROLLING STONES, The ROOTS, The SEX PISTOLS, AL GREEN and NEW ORLEANS METERS forged into its own indefinable new sound. RonKat's unique showmanship and singularly energized music style brings a powerful sound and a funk to his show that is incomparable. It is its own thing! It is *KATDELIC*

Katdelic began as RonKat's off the road project for the past few years but as of 2010 (with George Clinton's Blessing) Ronkat devoted all of his time and work to KATDELIC and the band is now a Bay Area Favorite, playing to full-house audiences.
