When Sal goes to New Orleans and Jazz Fest, Quintron and Miss Pussycat are probably not on the top of his must-see list. I don't remember how I found them, probably around 2008, and I'd mostly forgotten all about them until yesterday, when I was brainstorming ideas for today's post. That they are based in New Orleans, and apparently participating in Jazz Fest this Saturday entirely fits the bill. I wanted to welcome Sal home with something connected to his trip.
They occupy a space somewhere between Lux and Ivy of The Cramps, and Meg and Jack of The White Stripes. They're a super weird and kooky Art couple I'm glad to see still at it. They remind me of some of my friends. I'm sure they know how to throw a party.
From 2008:
Their latest, from 2020.
The opener:
Where's Karen?:
The title track:
The more you dig, the deeper the rabbit hole.
I think the world is a better place with kooky weirdness of Mr Quintron and Miss Pussycat in it. And where else would they be but New Orleans?

First BBJ, thanks for all you've done while I was away. Absolutely stellar!
My very first time in New Orleans, I saw Quintron & Miss Pussycat perform. Just one more piece of the the puzzle that makes me love that city so.
Well done.
