AN OUT OF THIS WORLD-BEAT TRIBAL FUNK ROCK EXPERIENCE!!!
KatsuK is a mesmerizing emotive musical experience that can silence a room or turn it upside down, touching every facet of your being without feeling dirty in the morning. From heavy tribal rhythms, funk, ska, reggae to rock with engaging and conscious lyrics to soaring native flutes and orchestral movements, KatsuK is a genre chameleon and truly a unique and deeply impact-full musical anomaly. Featuring: Daniel Katsuk (lead vocals, native flutes, guitar & soul glo), Jeff Dahlgren (producer/guitarist of world renowned, singer Mylene Farmer, vocals & quantum mechanics), Nick Werth (3 time national quad champion, drums, vibraphone & avalanches), Matt Skates (stand-up/electric bass & bazooka), and Orion Pitts (violin, percussion, vocals & hypnotism).
The new EP – Skeleton Key released this October has already begun opening doors all over the country and world. Soon, it will be knocking upon your own door, if it is not already now.
Based out of Ft. Worth TX, KatsuK is an unforgettable musical soul stirring experience that will leave you forever changed and incredibly moved; which led one fan to comment: "the orgasm we have been waiting for!"
