Nikki Katt - vocals and guitar; S.A. Bach - vocals and guitar
Influences
Weezer, Ozma, Cake, Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, U2, Billy Mann, Tenacious D... and then you've got your Paula Cole, Sarah MacLaughlin, Jill Sobule, Liz Phair... although nobody would ever say that it sounds like any of those people.
Sounds Like
None of the above... It kinda sounds like a mean letter disguised in sweetness written to your ex-boyfriend or girlfriend. Or, one person said that it's as blunt as Liz Phair, as funny as Tenacious D and even sometimes as pretty as (insert your favorite Lilith Fair artist here)...
"This Halloween" recorded by DJ KTA at Sound Management Studios in San Jose, CA
Nikki Katt is honest. Blatantly, brutally, brilliantly honest.
Whether it’s in her music, or her conversations, Nikki hits you in all your “special” places.
Originally from San Gabriel, CA, Nikki studied at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. Naturally, her first love was music, and she started out writing sweet little songs with sweet little themes. Feeling a little repressed, Nikki decided to forgo the sugariness, and wrote about what came naturally. However, what were acidic diatribes to the artist, were drawing belly-laughs from the audience. She couldn’t understand why she was pouring her heart out, and people were cracking up. Finally, after being told over and over by friends that she was a comedian…she simply made it official, and became one.
“(The songs were) super dirty…in fact, they were mostly super dirty songs about sex. Sex and all the issues surrounding sex... relationship issues, and practical issues surrounding sex are what interest me… so it’s what I write about.” -Nikki Katt
Since that turning point, Nikki has graced Los Angeles stages with her witty songs, and “accidental” humor. After Michael McKeon (A Mighty Wind, Spinal Tap, For Your Consideration) opened for HER, she quickly became a favorite guest at National Lampoon Comedy Radio. After all, it’s a man’s dream to find a girl that says she’s inspired by both Adam Sandler and Tenacious D. Her songs such as “When I'm with you” and “The Fuck You Song” have been uplifting anthems for men and women all over the Southland.
Overall, Nikki Katt somehow manages to say the stuff that would make your high school shop teacher blush. She’s been compared to Sarah Silverman, Janeane Garofalo, and a whiter, prettier, Redd Foxx (not really Redd Foxx…I made that up.)
She’ll make you spit with laughter. She’ll make you choke with glee. She’ll make out with your girlfriend. And now she brings a completely unique perspective to the comedy stage.
She’s the girl you want to bring home to mom. Just don’t bring mom to the show.
I turned you on to a bunch of College students..now come out and play one weekend so your new fans can really fall in lust with your music and humor! ;P
Unimaginable human suffering and mass animal extinction from global warming. A national security nightmare brought on by our dependence on foreign oil. A peak oil crisis threatening economic collapse.
You choose the reason... The time to ACT is NOW!
Ok, that was pretty dramatic... ha. After you change your undies, check out my bulletins and blogs for more good stuff. We can fix this thing...

I watched both the shows tonight. They didn't give you enough glory. It was only the begining of the video they showed. That sucked they didn't show the whole thing.
