  • Bio

    AN OUT OF THIS WORLD-BEAT TRIBAL FOLK ROCK REGGAE EXPERIENCE The music of KatsüK is chameleon in nature, actively defying genre and creating deeply impact-full works of art with substance, both timeless and borderless. It is what led one very enthusiastic fan to describe as "…the orgasm we have been waiting for." KatsüK is comprised of founder, Daniel Katsük on vocals, native flutes & guitar; Jeff Dahlgren on vocals & guitar; Evan O'Jones on drums; Anson Brody on electric bass; and Orion Pitts on violin, percussion & vocals. Guitarist, Dahlgren is also well known for his work with world-renowned French singer Mylene Farmer, and Evan O' Jones was the mix engineer for Dragonball Z. KatsüK's highly anticipated EP, Skeleton Key, was recently released in January 2010 as a prelude to their new groundbreaking album due out in the fall of 2011. Based out of Ft. Worth, TX, KatsüK has shared the stage with such esteemed and varied acts as Colin Hay (Men At Work), Fever In The Funkhouse, Sister 7, Patrice Pike, Cowboy Mouth, Guy Forsyth, Spoonfed Tribe, Brave Combo, Railroad Earth, Kan'Nal, Baboon, Brutal Juice, Ian Moore and many others. The band has also been featured in several festivals including SXSW (unofficial showcase), NX35, Funkytown Fall Festival, Dreamtime, Rock The Republic, Deep Ellum Arts Fest, Earth Dance, Heaven On Earth Festival, and many more. KatsüK has received repeated nods from the annual FW Weekly Music Awards, including 2011 nomination for Best Live Band and a 2010 nomination for Song of the Year (Skeleton Key's "Cut the Cord"). Previous awards include Best Acoustic/Folk Group (2008), Artist of the Year (2005), Best Acoustic Band (2005), and Singer/Songwriter of the Year (dallasmusic.com, 2001). Along with many additional nominations by FW Weekly over the years, the track "Evergreen" from 2008's Out in the Wind was recently chosen as one of the top ten songs of the last decade. The music of KatsüK has been featured in the television shows Dragonball Z, Case Closed, and Full Metal Alchemist (all appearing on Cartoon Network); and Daniel and Orion also utilize their voices as anime actors. As such, they have appeared on many popular shows including Spiral, Dragonball & Dragonball Z, Yu-Yu Hakusho, Kiddy Grade, Full Metal Alchemist, Grappler Baki, Case Closed, Samurai 7, Lupin the 3rd, Burst Angel, Desert Punk, Trinity Blood, Speed Grapher, Sakura Wars and more. With as wide a range and depth of style and emotion that the music of KatsüK encompasses, it is no wonder it has reached the ears and hearts of fans across the country and around the world. Aho.
