Well... Most bands put a bio here. But I've tried and tried to write about myself in third person, and it just isn't that easy for me... So I'm just gonna tell you our story in my words, cool?
My name is Kata, and I can't remember the first time I sang on stage, but I can remember my father telling the story 25,000 times :) Basically at the age of 2, I threw a FIT asking to be put in this beauty contest, so I could "sing" in the Talent Catagory, to the point of him saying he would put up the $50 dollar entry fee to prove to me that I couldn't sing. He had no idea what he was in for... I ended up winning that contest, going on and winning the National Title, "Little Miss Southern Belle" or something like that. lol
Over time the modeling side of things fell to the side, and music became my main focus, for over 13 years my parents drove me across the US, and even flew with me across the world to Australia, twice. Just to help me pursue my music. Also over time, I found the love of being a musician, and songwriter. Songwriting especially has become incredibly important to me. My dream is to rock on a huge stage to my songs along with 1000's of people in the audience singing along. And I know if I believe hard enough, anything can happen! And... yes I've watched ALOT of Disney movies. :)
About 4 years ago I met the most incredible bass player I had ever heard, or seen. His name is Robbie Helton. At the time I had no idea he would also become the most important person in my life in every way, My Husband, My Co-writer, and My Bass Player, haha. About 2 years after I met him, we decided we would start working towards playing in a band together, where I could play my songs, and he could play some funky bass!!! Basically what we wanted was no more rules, just music that you feel.
Robbie and I were lucky enough to find an insanely talented Drummer, Jason Roller, the incredible Matt Leadbetter who rips up the Lap Steel and Dobro and so we became "Kata & The Blaze". And if you've actually READ this far, I really hope you'll take the time to add us as a friend... If you already have... Then THANK you so much for the support! Because the road to "success" is hard, this I know. But without YOUR support its virtually impossible. And plus, I've always thought a girl can NEVER have too many friends! Right?

Much Love!

Since you’re one of my friends… I thought you'd want to know- I’m starring on a TV show, "Runnin' Wild from Ted Nugent" on CMT in August! AND I will be at CMA Music Festival, booth #503, (next to Trace Adkins' booth) June 11th- 14th, performing at 11am on the 14th! To get all the details, enter your email address on my red & brown email sign up box on my MySpace page!. I’m psyched about being on it and I have a feeling you’ll love the TV show! Ha! Sage Keffer .com PS Country legend, Lee Roy Parnell, just left me a great note. See my top blog. It's incredible to get such a great endorsement from him!
Hey Kate - Thanks for the friendship! Music links us all together.
There are wars taking place in every country in the world. Some are
just more obvious. Check out my new video "Simpler Time". Reach out
and make a difference and the ripple will be felt around the world. It
has to come from within each of us. The alternative is unacceptable.
Music can make a difference. Keep reaching out.
I could sure use your vote at Hoss the Boss Radio for the JUNE SONG OF THE MONTH CONTEST. You don't have to register, just place a check beside MIKE PARRISH - BLUE JEAN BABY & click VOTE! that's ALL there is to it! THANK YOU!

Hey K&TB. You are so welcome. That's a very nice pic of you with your left foot raised, cropped from the group pic. I'll email the full resolution original for you to edit as you please.
The two videos, "Reckless" and "Top Down" (is that the title?), should be fine, especially given the state of the PresPub's lighting and sound system. I would think that they would upgrade both, considering the amount of business that they do. When I get around to editing them, I'll have some questions for you. Should be sometime soon.
I won't be able to catch your show at The Catalyst; I've had tix for a long time to see Ray Wylie Hubbard at The Shed. Too much quality entertainment around here - what a problem to have! (I should have put you on my CSHL, but didn't 'cause you weren't on my calendar, 'cause of the Shed date. I'll fix that omission!)
