Katy Pinke’s songs are self-examinations—cerebral and unsparing, but reaching toward a more promising future. The Manhattan-based singer-songwriter, painter and actor mixes the precise and wry delivery of The Roches and Connie Converse with the idiosyncratic songforms of her espoused hero Bill Callahan.
Pinke is currently on tour, celebrating the release of her self-titled debut album. It is a work which strips Pinke's art down to its absolute essence. At the home studio of Phil Weinrobe (Adrianne Lenker, Cass McCombs), she recorded her vocals and minimal guitar accompaniments live with drummer Jeremy Gustin in front of an audience of a few friends. The idea was to capture the energy of Pinke’s live shows—storied events in the NYC indie rock scene. (Artists she has shared the stage with include Laura Veirs, Jolie Holland, TV On the Radio’s Kyp Malone, and Indigo Sparke.)
Norwood is a 26 year-old multi-instrumentalist songwriter and former Marine based out of the Northeast. He has collaborated with artists like Toth, Delicate Steve, Indigo Sparke, and Katy Pinke. His debut EP "Miss the Point" released on Island House Recordings in 2023, and was recorded in between A/C breaks during the dog days of summer in Brooklyn. It reflects on issues of identity upon getting out of the military, as well as a genuine warmth and gratitude for the people we connect with in life.
