Fresh indie tunes with catchy pop hooks are the signature style of emerging Brisbane artist Katanak. Known for his infectious indie rock/pop groove-inducing earworms that fans of The 1975, The Wombats and Sam Fender will appreciate, Katanak brings colour to your world. Fresh off playing Brisbane Festival, and collaborating with some of Australia's most highly respected emerging and established artists (Quan Yeomans (Regurgitator) and Pete Murray to name a few), Katanak comfortably straddles genre’s grey-area of rock & pop, adding colour to your musical palette. Don’t try to define him or his genre, as he firmly believes that the only thing that matters is whether a song is good and casts aside rigid genre labels.

In 2023, Katanak's star continues to rise. He embarked on a tour of Queensland, taking his music to eager ears across the region. Notably, he rocked the stages of the Cairns Festival and the Rockhampton River Festival, sharing the spotlight with The Delta Riggs. Adding to this growing list of live performances, Katanak supported Pete Murray and secured the prestigious halftime slot at the FIFA Fan Festival during the Matilda's electrifying game against France for the FIFA Womens Football World Cup. 

That's just the first half of the year! Currently recording his debut EP with Aidan Hogg (Jaguar Jonze, Hope D), this EP promises to showcase his constantly evolving musical style, capturing the essence of his artistic growth and experimentation. 
 
To date his music has been played on major stations Triple J Unearthed, Double J Radio, ABC Radio, BBC Introducing Radio Solent (UK), BBC Radio nan Gaidheal (Scotland), Amazing Radio (both UK & US), OZ Now Radio and 4ZZZ with Sunday’s video clip added to rotation on MTV Upload across Australia and New Zealand. Gathering praise from Music is My Muse, Happy Mag, LivewireAU and Good Call Live, Katanak is establishing himself as an exciting indie newcomer.
​
With music “oozing the charm of a 90s boy band dipped in a delicious sugar-pop sound” (Music is my Muse), the young musician shows no sign of slowing down any time soon!
