In the midst of rock and roll's ever-shifting tides, Kelsey Montanez’s voice surges like a lightning bolt, a thrilling new voice that crackles with raw energy and enigmatic allure. According to The Chicago Music Guide, “Montanez has a voice that can match the beloved Amy Winehouse, causing the hair on the back of your neck to stand up."

BassKase is the nom de guerre of producer/bassist Curtis Ruptash. Co-leader of Canadian avant-funk dub collage artists Guerilla Welfare, dub disrupters/audio manipulators Peabody & Sherman, dark wave/experimental pop group Marrow Thieves, ambient/glitch Frostback and others.
