About this Event
Bio
Miss Pussycat began her career in art and puppetry as a child in the Southern Baptist Church of Antlers Oklahoma as part of the Christian Puppet Youth Ministry. She is always excited to bring puppetry into the pantheon of contemporary art, as well as the subculture of underground music.
The magical collaboration that is Quintron and Miss Pussycat began at a Mardi Gras party in New Orleans. For thirty years, the two of them have been busy presenting live puppet shows and playing organ driven party music in rock clubs, pizza restaurants, and secret clubhouses all around the world. They also create puppet movies and videos and have released dozens of albums.
Their puppet movies and videos include Trixie and the Treetunks (forVBS), Frenchy and Jett (Disney), North Pole Nutrias (aired annually on Cox channel 10), and Electric Swamp which tells the story of Formosan termites and Ernie and Antoinette K-Doe.
Quintron and Miss Pussycat were in the AMC dramatization of Anne Rice’s novel, Mayfair Witches, in 2023. They were also in David Simon’s Treme, playing themselves in the Halloween episode.
Miss Pussycat has enjoyed doing large-scale installations and exhibits of her puppets and their worlds at The Ohr- O’Keefe Museum, The Galveston Art Center, The New Orleans Museum of Art, The Contemporary Art Center of New Orleans, and The Ogden Museum of Southern Art. She was the featured artist for GONERFEST 16 in Memphis Tennessee and was twice a featured artist for PROSPECT the New Orleans art triennial.
Quintron is known for his electronic inventions, including the Drum Buddy, the Weather Warlock, and a water-conservation device called the Bath Buddy.
Together, Miss Pussycat and Quintron throw a fun party.
