Yes, America’s favorite twosome featuring hard rockin’ dance music and hand puppets is back on the road.  Handling most of the music is Quintron, a bona fide inventor and patent holder.  One of his more well-known creations is the Drum Buddy, a light-activated analog synthesizer which he received a patent for in 1999.  Drum Buddy clients include Laurie Anderson, Atmosphere’s Mr. Dibbs and Fred Armisen of SNL / “Portlandia” fame.

While Quintron teases sounds out of his keyboards and various electronic creations, his lovely wife Miss Pussycat presents a puppet show to go along with the music.  What’s more, Miss P is also an inventor, having created an inflatable puppet theater that fits into her purse.

When not running her puppets through the paces, Miss P plays maracas and sings.  Quintron & Miss Pussycat’ latest album is Spellcaster II: Death In Space, available now.

The first studio album from Quintron’s live band, Weather Warlock, arrives May 10.  The Weather Warlock will perform at Los Angeles’ HM157 May 22, and will play gigs in San Francisco May 25; Portland, Ore. May 27; and St. Louis, Mo., June 10.  Venues to be announced.
