Kate Doubleday

Kate Doubleday's "somersaulting soaring vocals" (- What's On magazine) explore the emotions and uplift the spirits with her distinctive a cappella harmonies. Her songs are both intimate and infectious.

"Kate's music is so original as to defy categorisation - "world music" that stretches from the heart of England to South Africa, taking in countries such as Ireland and Bulgaria on the way, might begin to describe it." (- Folk Magazine)

In many ways Kate's journey through life is recorded in her songs. Her deeply personal songs on the debut album Renewal have given birth to a new body of work around the concept of Belonging. Taking influences from the late poet Frances Horovitz Kate has crafted a delicate personal portrait of what it means to belong.

Her observation of nature and its fragility is reflected in the emotive and vulnerable quality that she brings to bare in her songs. Her intimacy with nature is beautifully demonstrated in her new work which is sensitively evolved by the enormous talents of her band.
