Details:
20-year-old singer/songwriter Kat McGivern is truly a product of everything she hears. Her compositions are a fusion of folk, rock, jazz, Irish, and pop. With a voice that is as crisp and clear as the cold air over her native Boston streets, Kat weaves together her influences with a style that is unique and captivating to audiences. Under the spell of a stage presence that is at once commanding and personable, listeners feel that they are being conversed with rather than sung to. While innocently melodic, her lyrics and soul command the experience of a woman well beyond her years. At once Kat is ancient and new. Under the influence of her talent, a lyrical Irish melody will quickly become a catchy, unique pop rock song. Kat truly is the voice of the next generation, and a representative of the art of American music. She is able to haunt listeners with both her words and her voice, which carries traces of a distant place, yet vibrates with tones of intimate familiarity.

Kat plays with a professional band as well as making solo acoustic appearances, and all of the songs she performs are her own originals. Fans come not only to hear her crystalline voice, but also to listen to the songs they have come to love. Kat maintains a steady schedule at local venues and coffeehouses, as well as playing on regional college radio shows. Recently she has been hard at work in Franconia, New Hampshire, recording her debut album at Mojo Music Studios.
