Stranger Cat (multi-media artist Cat Martino) is a Vocalist, Producer, Composer, Dancer, Light Sculpture Creator, Video Maker and Sound Healer. The frequent collaborator with Sufjan Stevens (from Coachella to the Sydney Opera House), Cat has also recorded and toured internationally with Sharon Van Etten, The Shins (SNL), Nathaniel Rateliff, Son Lux, Marissa Nadler, Passion Pit, Mark Gardener (RIDE), and Richard Swift to name a few. Marked by Martino's velvet croon, signature vocal looping, and a production style that is electronic and organic, Stranger Cat delivers a range of intricate and soulful experimental art pop. She was awarded NYFA Women's Grant (2020) & NYC City Corps Grant (2021). Her voice and songwriting at the center, she is surrounded by keyboards, looping pedals, samples from city and nature sounds, and a multi-media live show including self-made crystalline light sculptures made from sustainable, found materials and her experimental dance videos, to yield a full sensory performance experience. Stranger Cat's debut album In the Wilderness was released on Joyful Noise Records, and NPR cites her work "Pairs high-energy production with soaring vocals that sound like a dare to be free", and Noisey says she "Hangs in a starry galaxy alongside Kate Bush and Purity Ring".
