Kitty Craft is Pamela Valfer.
Debuting in 1994 with the S/T cassette release on the Australian, Toytown label, and IT?S STUPID EP 7" in 1995, Pam?s sound was originally a low-tech affair. 1997?s I GOT RULEZ EP 7" expanded her sound with keys & sampler, leading to 1998 release of BEATS & BREAKS ROM THE FLOWER PATCH. In 2000, her 2nd full-length album, CATSKILLS. Both albums had Japanese tours and Japanese CD releases.
Around 2003/2004 after the completion of her 3rd Album... Pam dropped the mic, hung up her headphones, and put kitty craft into hibernation. The album was put down, filed away, and no plans to be heard. Pam then focused on her visual and multimedia art, and career as an art professor.
In 2019, kitty craft woke from hibernation and quietly without fanfare, released "Beats and Breaks from the Flower Patch" and "Catskills" on all streaming & digital platforms. Followed soon after by "Lost Tapes", a gem of an album, comprised exclusively of the previously unreleased songs recorded as a full album in 2003.
?In some kind of pandemic zeitgeist, along with stuff like Lofi Girl/ChilledCow, a 90's aesthetic resurgence, and the popularity of new and old vinyl records - kitty craft has been adopted by a whole new group of digital natives. Amazing and unexpected.
?Valentine's Day 2022 brought us kitty craft's first full-length LP vinyl record... MEW (1994-2004), an anthology album with tracks spanning all her eras... MEW, shows an artist with a clear vision from the start.
Since then - the Kitty Craft discography has been re-issued in expanded/deluxe CD and vinyl editions. And some cassettes too!
?In November of 2024, Los Angeles - Pam played her first show in 20+ years to an incredible response. Now 2025 and touring in earnest, Kitty Craft's new young fans have created a wonderful and welcoming scene. You should come say hi.
?2026 will include US and international shows! ?xo. Meow. (Text: Presseinfo)
