Kate's songs take you on a journey through her private fantasy world of six-car pile-ups, playdough, sleazy boys and snow-frosted toes. Kate combines the fragility of Holly Throsby and the pop sensibility of Lily Allen with the ironic melancholy of Belle and Sebastian. With angelic vocals and french-inspired rhythms, this is anti-folk, but less pretentious.
