Music – Seattle
Electronics, lights, fog, driving synth lines and emerging, ethereal vocals. Purr Gato makes you want to move and feel, groove and sway, get lost in the beats that vibrate through every fiber of your being. They take you on a journey through lost love, found love, a ride on the roller coaster of self discovery, self acceptance and coping with the outside forces that guide you.
We are post-punk 70’s, dark-wave 80’s, downbeat club 90’s, and Trip hop of 00’s.
Purr Gato, is an original soul-synth-wave band, that currently calls Seattle their home. When you listen, you might think they garner inspiration from acts like Depeche Mode, or The Knife. Core band members include songwriter Katrina Kope (vox/synth), Tyler Kope (synths), and our new addition, Devin Bews (electric drums).
Founded in 2010 by veteran jazz, funk, pop vocalist/composer Katrina Kope, along with former new-wave guitarist and trip-hop beat maker Tyler Kope, Purr Gato emits an attractive, yet occasionally ominous brand of Dark-Wave-Electro-Clash, combining a wild selection of musical influences to generate their trademark style.
