Robert Barron-Gushel has the kinda voice that turns heads and raises eyebrows.

The kinda voice that makes you look at the person next to you and shrug in unison, because neither of you can believe that such a powerful, soulful voice was hiding inside a young man who looks more like a football player than a soul singer.

About 150 people packed into Fagan's Irish Pub on Friday night, to see Barron-Gushel's group, Super Lucky Catz (http://www.myspace.com/superluckycatzslc), and learned first-hand the power of his singing voice. Really, if he doesn't have the best voice in Fresno, he's on a short list.

Barron-Gushel along with partner Brandon Yoshida make-up the Super Lucky Catz. They're mainly an acoustic duo, with Yoshida playing guitar and drums, while Barron-Gushel sings and plays piano. Their two-man show was good -- with Yoshida creating soundscapes for Barron-Gushel's voice to soar over -- but the band really succeeded in the second part of their show, bringing three others on stage and playing with a full-band.

They blended the pop sensibility of Maroon 5, with the old-school soul songwriting of Stevie Wonder. There was no question people were loving it. As Barron-Gushel walked around during breaks in the two-hour set, people told him so. Also, the band sold every one of its newly released CDs.

The Super Lucky Catz show wasn't a full-on Rogue Festival show. Fagan's is one of this year's Bring Your Own Venues, which means its calendar of entertainment gets folded into the Rogue mix. That means, unfortunately, there's not another Rogue show scheduled for Super Lucky Catz. But you can catch them March 20 at the Fresno City College Battle of the Bands.

Meanwhile, if you're looking for some another pop-soul band to check out, Crosby Loggins (http://www.myspace.com/crosbyloggins) -- Kenny's son -- and the Namedroppers perform tonight at Fagan's in another Rogue-affiliated show. It starts at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $8
