Description
The always innovative, always years ahead of time, Kristeen Young, is a no-genre, art-punk, piano and drums duo (and at times, solo artist) based in New York. Kristeen's unique piano sound blends dissonance and bashing with melodicism; her vocals, emotive and operatic. While drummer, Jefferson Wayne Baby Jef White, hits hard with a soulful aggression. The signature sound has been described as Callas meets Gang of Four but with a piano and like Urgh! A Music War all rolled-up into one band.
In March 2026, Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins asked Young to write and record a cover/arrangement of their legendary song, Bullet with Butterfly Wings, to be used for a SP promotional video for the upcoming anniversary tour of their Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness album. The promotional video premiered in May 2026. Kristeen is presently playing and singing this cover/arrangement of the song solo (opening the second half of the show) at selected Smashing Pumpkins shows throughout their tour.
Colorblock is an electronica, experimental, indie, not really classifiable, pop, rock group from San Francisco made up of 2 best friends.
