"Powerful on her own, arrangements are centered on McDonell's soaring soprano vocals, expressive acoustic guitar fingerpicking, and the rhythmic accompaniment...With her poetic songs...she shares that life with an unforgetable impact"--C. Harris, Boston G

"Kate McDonnell is an engaging, inventive, authentic, charismatic performer with a voice that will bowl you over with its beauty and power. On top of that, she makes me howl with laughter. Her songwriting and guitar style are exquisite."--Nancy Tucker

Kate delivers her second CD, NEXT. From subtle reflections on true love--"Secrets" and "Time and Time Again"--to her irascible blues tune "Don't Fix My Faucet"--to the joyous "Dog's Odyssey," Kate speaks from the heart, plays a mean riff (she plays upsidedown and backwards) and sings with power and purity. Production leaves guitar and vocal up front. Songs include "Lines" and "Enola Gay" omigod she's a radical--"Looking Down For Looking Up," "I Just Assumed," "If I Knew," "Tangerine Shirt," "Our Love," and "Baltimore"

"I took a walk down by the lake
It ws frozen o'er, and the wind it blew
It sounded like the moan
Of a hundred drowning men
Frozen underneath for a hunred years
So I thought that must be how it feels to bury deep
The secrets that you hold from them and me."
