Details:
Although the Los Angeles-based PURR MACHINE was established in 1996, Betsy & Kevin solidified their reputations with previous endeavors. Frontwoman Betsy Martin utilized her distinctive croon with the seminal Phoenix-formed Caterwaul, a band which released two albums on the IRS label in the '80s. In PURRMACHINE, she writes the lyrics, conceives all of the vocal melodies.

Betsy also contributed vocals to a bunch of songs by the Tone Casualties' band DRUMATIC. Next up is Kevin Kipnis, PURR MACHINE's bassist, programmer and primary songwriter. He did his time as bassist & composer in the highly acclaimed Los Angeles gothic group Kommunity FK.

On GING GING their debut full length release they create "atmospherica" and ethereal driven rock sound that's more aggressive than anything from the old school 4AD camp. But too atmospheric and hypnotic to blend in with the generic guitar crowd. In addition to their riff driven track they also weave together some laid back "Electronica" inspired grooves.
