Tacocat

Tacocat is an effervescent punk-pop quartet hailing from Seattle, Washington, known for their vibrant melodies, humorous and socially-aware lyrics, and a spirited dedication to flipping the script on gender norms within the genre. Formed in 2007, the band consists of Emily Nokes (vocals, tambourine), Eric Randall (guitar), Bree McKenna (bass), and Lelah Maupin (drums). Their sound is a blend of catchy, upbeat tunes, often laced with a wry, satirical take on subjects ranging from internet culture to feminist critique, all delivered with a distinctive garage-band zest.

Over the years, Tacocat has become a staple of the Seattle music scene and beyond, evolving their aesthetic while maintaining a signature blend of humor and pointed social commentary. With albums like "NVM" (2014), a playful nod to Nirvana's breakthrough album "Nevermind," and "Lost Time" (2016), a reference to "The X-Files," they've crafted an identity that's both relatable and thoroughly engrossing. Their fourth album, "This Mess Is a Place" (2019), continues this trend, showcasing a maturation in songwriting set against the backdrop of turbulent sociopolitical times, and couched in the vibrant, day-glo esprit that is quintessentially Tacocat. Their most recent EP, "Retrograde" (2020), further encapsulates the band's characteristic blend of assertive pop hooks and incisive cultural observations, all while ensuring that the fans are in for a rollicking good time.
