Pinke writes introspective songs—cerebral, unsparing, and texturally rich. Her 2024 debut album (produced by Phil Weinrobe – Big Thief, Hand Habits) was described by PopMatters as “dreamlike but rooted in authentic, basic principles of songwriting and performance.” Katy’s latest record Strange Behavior has drawn comparisons to Aldous Harding, Julia Holter, and Suzanne Vega. Live, she’s shared the stage with Laura Veirs, Delicate Steve, Jolie Holland, Kyp Malone (of TV On the Radio), Diane Cluck, Jesse Harris, and many others. Katy often incorporates visual art and puppetry into her performances, creating immersive and multi-sensory sets that whisper to the subconscious.

Her bandmate and co-producer Nico Osborne is a New York based multi-instrumentalist and songwriter under the project Nicomo. He is a collaborator with several other projects including Jackie West, Oropendola, Devon Church, and Thanya Iyer.

WPKN GOLD SOUNDS, is a new pilot series of live in-studio video and broadcast sessions, elevating and showcasing Connecticut/tri-state artists and global acts.

Artists and bands perform at WPKN's Bridgeport Studios, captured on video via Black Rock's Kicker Pictures, and multi-track recorded by Chris Ruggiero (Preservation Sound), and assistant engineer Chris Miller. Video sessions are typically 10-20 minutes, paired with a 55-minute broadcast featuring the performance tracks, led by a band interview focusing on formation, influences, craft etc.

The video session can be found here.
