Kate Boy

music plays to a pitch black room & 4 people in baseball caps & camo jackets mysteriously slither on stage.

We’re majorly crushin’ on sexy, stockholm-based quartet, kate boy.

A track starts playing to a completely dark room. Four figures, all in hats and camo jackets, mysteriously slighter on stage. A solitary bright beam acts as a backlight, while three guys gather around guitars and drums, while the lead singer, Kate Akhurst, starts in with her haunting, intoxicating voice.

you struggle to see faces, but are dying to get a glimpse. You wonder when the show lights will come on, but then quickly realize this is all part of the impressive, sultry act that is Kate Boy.

We’ve been feelin’ Kate Boy since they started making the internet rounds, but we didn’t know much more thanks to their equally mysterious online presence. It’s clear their whole approach is deliberate, and well-crafted, just like their music. After their amazing concert, we don’t even care what they look like with the lights on — we just want to know when we can see them again. —Molli
