Katz, originally from Yonkers, New York, began as a punk bassist before hitchhiking west and developing a catalog of original songs while busking. The Pistachios evolved from his rotating group of friends on the L.A. live circuit. Their sound fuses ska rhythms, surf swing, and big-band brass with a tongue-in-cheek theatrical edge, a self-described “rock-and-roll show” built for dancing and storytelling.
They play a blend of ska, rock and roll, surf swing, and big-band brass, known for their theatrical and dance-friendly sound.
