Katy Pinke + Kadesh Flow Trio
Doors at 6:30 Music at 7PM
Katy Pinke
Katy Pinke’s songs are self-examinations—cerebral and unsparing, but reaching toward a more promising future. The Manhattan-based singer-songwriter, painter, and theater-maker’s nimble soprano evokes the precision, humor, and melancholy of forbearers like The Roches and Connie Converse. Sentences pour across verses, disrupting the symmetry of the expected verse-chorus form. Pinke released her stripped-down debut self-titled album in the spring of 2024, which PopMatters describes as “warm and engaging…somehow dreamlike but rooted in authentic, basic principles of songwriting and performance.” Her live shows have become storied events in the NYC indie scene, sharing the stage with acts like Laura Veirs, Jolie Holland, TV On the Radio’s Kyp Malone, Indigo Sparke, Delicate Steve, Jesse Harris, Trixie Whitley, and Diane Cluck.
Kadesh Flow
Kadesh Flow is a vocalist, trombonist, and producer who weaves in and out of jazz, hip hop, soul, and funk with his original lyrics and compositions. While most performances involve a quartet (Desh on trombone and vocals, plus keys, bass and drums), his musical outings range from solo performances and trios to quintets, sextets and beyond, depending on the situation.
