Winner of De Nieuwe Lichting 2025, Kaat Van Stralen refuses to be boxed in. What started as a solo project has evolved into a genre-defying punk band. Punk, psychedelia, alternative spoken word: nothing is off limits. Expect cracking beats, biting riffs, commanding basslines, with playful wordcraft and fragile vocals. Her debut EP 'Vieze Vlinder', produced by Pieter-Jan Decraene, drops in November. Her live shows are a whirlwind of intense energy, strong messages, and raw expression. With letters in her left hand and notes in her right, Kaat sculpts her own musical alphabet, order unknown, compass slightly lost, but emotions and artistry guaranteed.
