Kat Pereira

Kat Pereira is a Montreal-based multi-instrumentalist and synesthete. Known as a keyboardist, guitarist, bassist, flutist, and backing vocalist in various projects including Alfa Rococo, Eli Rose, Alex Nevsky, Laura Niquay, and Noé Lira, she steps out of her chameleon role to reveal her true self through a luminous, maximalist alternative electro-pop sound, inspired by queens like Erykah Badu, Hiatus Kaiyote, and Saya Gray. Her name became widely known as a finalist in Les Francouvertes, Montreal’s renowned music competition. Kat Pereira blends powerful poetry with catchy melodies to explore themes both intimate and universal: colonialism, feminism, and the search for identity. With Félix Petit (Les Louanges, Hubert Lenoir, Ariane Roy) by her side, she released vert de lichen in fall 2025, her debut album colored with pale green hues of D-flat. On stage, she is joined by her invaluable allies Marie Gilaine Louis, Paul Lamontagne, and Guillaume Picard. Together, the group creates a unique, maximalist, and vibrant universe where soul, hyperpop, jazz, and electronic music collide—an offering for a world in need of light, playfulness, and solid beats to imagine a softer tomorrow.
