My influences as an artist are probably best described on my main artist page 'http://www.myspace.com/katelouisesmith'
As a songwriter I write for acts across a whole host of genres so I am inspired people who can adapt their style and write a song that fits the project. Examples would be writers like Dianne Warren & Cathy Dennis.

2007 saw Kate release many of her own tracks including the club anthem "Party For the Weekend" which she performed and penned for the ’Soul Seekerz’ a track which was extremely well received by Radio and clubbers alike! The song knocked both Justin Timberlake and Madonna from the top spot when it reached the No 1 position in the UK Club Charts twice over and was subsequently released by Positiva 2007. With remixes from the likes of Stonebridge and the Soulshaker’s in the mix pacakge the track also picked up a storm stateside, with 10 weeks on the US Billboard Dance Chart, peaking at number 5 in the airplay chart.
2008 will see further collaborations with producer Lewis Dene (Solitaire) and New York producer Davidson Ospina. Their new act ’Ny-Lon’ recently released ’When You Love Someone’ (penned and peformed by Kate) through Eyezcream Records. The track has a fabulous remix package from the likes of Parisian boys ’Lifelike’ and newcomer David Rubato. The track has already seen support from Radio One with the Trophy Twins supporting the cause! The DMC predicts an anthem giving the track 5 star status and an ’essential’ listing.
