biographical info
After 8 years on UK indie label 'Grand Central Records' where she worked as a vocalist for artists like AIM and Rae and Christian, as well as releasing two albums of her own, Kate decided it was time to bring it back home to Toronto, Canada.
Now, two years after the North American release of 'St. Eustacia', Kate and her 6 piece band are running wild and independent and and have just wrapped up the recording of their latest album 'Beauregard', which is already itching for its 2008 release. While never losing sight of her original folk roots, Beauregard picks up the pace where St. Eustacia left off.
With production by Toronto indie rock aficionado Chris Stringer (Ohbijou, The D'urbervilles) and mixed by the venerable Michael Phillip Wojewoda (Rheostatics, Spirit of the West) this album boasts a little extra energy, punch and indie rock flavour than earlier recordings and in turn gives Kate's affecting, soulful vocals the opportunity to really flex some muscle. It also makes for a great live show!
