Grumpy Kitty Boy roams the streets of Toronto and Manila in his dreams. He likes singing badly and loves his kitty

Grumpy Kitty Boy is the singer-songwriter project of Toronto-based composer Juro Kim Feliz.

A friend sent me a vinyl edition of "Blue Bucket of Gold" as a gift. That was my entry point to this album. The "Sufjan Stevens" soundscape definitely paints the whole story with full sincerity.

"Eastbound" was my entry point to Vancouver-based Manila Grey. Dreamy late night city vibes surely gets my attention, along with the fact that the diasporic awareness is present in their writing.
