Kat and the Hurricane

Kat and the Hurricane is a genre- and gender-bending synth rock project from Madison, Wisconsin. Lead singer/guitarist Kat Farnsworth (they/them), keyboardist Benjamin Rose (they/them), and drummer Alex Nelson (they/them) deliver a unique blend of pop and haunting indie rock - which they dub as "Sad Lesbian Music."

Kat and the Hurricane’s award-winning 2021 release “The Sorry EP” finds the trio in their element, mixing uncompromising pop, evocative lyrics, and powerhouse vocals to make music reminiscent of any tropical storm - surging, fierce, and guaranteed to knock you off your feet. Their inspirations range from bands such as Paramore, pronoun, and Tegan and Sara. Emotionally-charged but dancey, their music is sure to strike a chord with any audience.
