Quintron & Miss Pussycat
I’ve Got a Guy 4 That
BMI / Quintronic Sounds
There may be some other guy out there who’s “got a guy” for everything, but if you need to “pull a permit from the city of New Orleans to cover your entire roof with graham cracker crusts,” you need Quintron & Miss Pussycat.
You can also get a library card and a trip to Mars according to “I’ve Got a Guy 4 That,” but the real gem here is always Quintron & Miss Pussycat, the duo performing the “psychedelic soul of traditional New Orleans party music, filtered through a Hammond organ, technicolor puppets, and a battalion of distorted, homemade instruments,” for over 20 years. Most impressive among the aforementioned homemade instruments is the Drum Buddy, a mystical, light-activated music machine comprising a precision metal can, myriad knobs and tubes, and magic in an artisan sinker cypress cabinet crafted by Marvin Hirsch.
We caught them at Will’s Pub in 2015, and have missed every tour since then, including the summer tour that wrapped up in June, but will be on the lookout for more of the beautifully smooth faces of Quintron & Miss Pussycat.
