WATCH & SHARE "BUC-EE'S GOT A PROBLEM"
For the first time ever, Quintron & Miss Pussycat have ditched the drum machine in favor of NOLA jazz-basher, Sam Yoger (Babes, AJ Davilla) on drum kit, and slinky Florida man, Danny Clifton (Room 13, Jane Jane Pollock) on hollow body guitar. The resulting vibe is some kinda tweaked out Miami disco dipped into a Mississippi mudslide, especially the tracks featuring Biloxi talk-box master, Benny Divine (aka BENNI). And for the mystery lovers, there is 3/4 power-ballad entitled, “Where’s Karen”, featuring backing vocals by Heather Lee (Room 13, Jane Jane Pollock), about a troubled girl who vanished on Mardi Gras day.
Quintron & Miss Pussycat have been making genre-defying noise and hard rocking dance music out of New Orleans for over fifteen years. The majority of their 16 full-length albums have the psychedelic soul of traditional New Orleans party music, filtered through a vintage Hammond B-3, technicolor puppets, and a battalion of distorted, homemade instruments.
In addition to his work with Miss Pussycat, Quintron has been releasing albums featuring a self-made weather synthesizer called Weather Warlock, which uses sun, rain, temperature, and barometric pressure to make music. He has also played Hammond organ on a number of records by other artists, most notably The Oblivians’ "9 Songs" and Steve Riley and The Mamou Playboys’ "Grand Isle" which was nominated for a Grammy in 2012 and featured the Quintron penned song "Chatterbox". Quintron has also appeared in several films and television shows, including 2019 Showtime hit, on Becoming A God In Central Florida.
Q & P’s sweaty musical blasts are paralleled in spirit and performance by Miss Pussycat’s dreamy puppet worlds – elaborate, and beautifully crafted for success in intimate venues of late night drinking and dancing. She has also had several major solo museum exhibitions and, although the puppets are NEVER for sale, ceramics, paintings and other visual work related to her puppetry, are represented by the Webb Gallery in Waxahachie, Texas. A large show of oil paintings and ceramics is scheduled for Fall 2020.
