Their first album “Fool’s Paradise, named after the Buddy Holly song they recorded on the album. contained 9 Buddy Holly songs as well as an instrumental version of Buddy’s song “True Love Ways.For the next 15 years Headcat performed live all over the world, whenever Lemmy could get away from megatours with Motorhead and Danny B and Slim Jim were both free. During that time they recorded 2 albums and filmed a live DVD, rocking on Sunset Strip. In December 2015 Lemmy passed away at the age of 70 years old, two weeks after playing his last show with Headcat.

In the following 3 years after his passing Headcat continued, first with David Vincent filling in on vocals bass and now with Danny B. Harvey taking over leadership. Danny B. recently changed the band name to Headcat 13 out of respect for Lemmy Kilmister and to distinguish between Headcat era with Lemmy and Headcat without. Rest assured The spirit, vision and songlist the same and the band sounds better than ever.Danny B. Harvey & Headcat 13 is very excited about being invited to play The Winter Dance Party at Surf Ballroom in 2020 and will pull out all the stops.
