  • Bio

    .... .... .. Kate Klim was five years old when her family inherited a piano, 9 years old when she received her first lesson, and 11 years old when an unsuccessful audition for the film "Life with Mikey" caused her to rethink her career as a moviestar. This was fortunate, because the singer/songwriter Club Passim has since called a "local rising star" then turned to music. .... With roots in Palatine, Illinois and Downingtown, Pennsylvania, Kate was raised on a steady diet of Carole King , Paul Simon, Billy Joel and John Lennon. Later on, her influences grew to include Patty Griffin, Jonatha Brooke, Chris Trapper and Garrison Starr. .... Kate's musical success in her hometown led her to Berklee College of Music in Boston. It was here that Kate worked on her skills as a writer and performer. She can often be found on the stages of Club Passim, the Tin Angel, Tupelo Music Hall and other notable listening rooms. Recent accomplishments include opening slots for Shawn Colvin, Richard Shindell, Ollabelle and a performance at Philadelphia’s Electric Factory as part of the Philly Music Awards. After winning a coveted spot at the 2004 Mid-Atlantic NACA conference, Kate entered the college market, which included the receipt of a special “emerging artist” award fron the prestigious Cornell University. Summer of 2005 included an honorable mention in the Mountain Stage Newsong Contest, and 2006 brought her to the Finals for Mountain Stage as well as the "Silver" Award for Best Folk Song in the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest. 2007 found Kate as a Kerrville Newfolk Finalist, and in 2008 she took 3rd overall in the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest (of over 1000 entrants). .... In 2006, Kate collaborated with celebrated New England producer, Crit Harmon (Martin Sexton, Lori McKenna, Meg Hutchinson) to record her first fully-produced CD. Several songs have already won awards, and the album was released in January, 2007 to a sold out crowd in Cambridge, MA. In late summer of '07, Kate returned to her hometown of Philadelphia, PA, to pursue music full time, moving once more to Nashville in summer 2009. ........ ...... .... ..

    Only WE Can STOP WORLD HUNGER Kate!
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT WORLD HUNGER ...

    Here is some FOOD FOR THOUGHT ~

    > Every 3.6 seconds a person dies of HUNGER

    > 75% of them are CHILDREN

    > 30 million people a year DIE OF HUNGER

    > HUNGER is the world's #1 Health Risk ~ It kills more
       people every year than AIDS, malaria, and TB
       combined

    > 1 in 7 people in the world will go to bed hungry tonight

    > 925 million people do not have enough to eat and
       98% of them live in developing countries  

    > In the U.S. alone, we spend 5 times the amount each
       year it would take to feed the world's hungry on WEIGHT
       LOSS PROGRAMS

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Richard

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT FEELING RICH ...

    "It is easy to FEEL RICH any time ...

    Just COUNT all the things you have THAT MONEY

    CAN'T BUY."

    OUR SOUL ALONG THE WAY!  CELEBRATE THE

    RICHNESS OF THINGS MONEY CAN'T BUY!

Sounds Like:

Folk/pop with influences of Jonatha Brooke, Carole King, Paul Simon, Patty Griffin, and just about everything (including the Bangles). When asked, I often say "Sarah MacLachlan," but that's mainly so people can quickly grasp that I play piano and sing about generally sad things.
