'Engaging, sensitive and impossible not to fall in love with'
- RTRFM (Perth).
"Loren Kates delicate storytelling style... was lapped up by an audience that would stay hooked for the entire night. Her mixture of finger picking and strumming laid the foundation for a set that, while featuring solemn meaningful songs, was delivered with humour and a balanced unguardedness."
-Drum Media
"Winner of the emerging artist award for 2008, Loren Kate truly is a rising star. The best new talent i've seen in ages."
- Phaedra Watts, Nannup Music Festival Co-ordinator.
"....Loren Kate, a star of the future."
- ABC South West WA.
“Loren Kate’s music has an uplifting effect on you that is infectious. Her happy go lucky melodies and clever lyrics are a recipe that puts you in a good mood and everyone needs more of that now and then!”
- Brian Lizotte.
New album, Brand New Shoes now available in all good music stores through Vitamin Records Distribution! www.vitaminrecords.net.au!
Enchantingly beautiful, down-to-earth and absolutely spellbinding, Loren Kate has cast a sublime and haunting web over audiences around the country with her unique and unforgettable sound and soul.
Having travelled and toured to most corners of Australia over the years, Loren has steadily forged a close relationship with her music and the land, having penned songs in just about every town from Fremantle to Byron Bay.
Her debut album, Brand New Shoes is a great milestone for the 25-year-old songwriter. Recorded over just 5 days at Soundmine Studio in Western Australia with producer Lee Buddle and 7 talented WA musicians, the album has the sound and feel of a highly crafted work of art, no doubt due to the amount of energy, enthusiasm and love put in during the time leading up to recording. The result is a beautifully dynamic, emotionally charged storybook of two or more years’ worth of joy, love, loss, gratitude, family, friends, travel and everything in between.
Over the last few years, Loren has travelled extensively around the country, taking her music from the deserts to the seas and back again. She has performed at countless venues and festivals around the country including Woodford Folk Festival (QLD), Peats Ridge Folk Festival (NSW), Fairbridge Festival (WA), Fleurieu Folk Festival (SA), Tamar Valley Folk Festival (Tas), Earthdance (WA), Alice Springs Desert Festival (NT), Oenpelli Open Day (NT), Go Organic Festival (SA) and was awarded most promising emerging artist at the Nannup Music Festival (WA).
Loren Kate has also shared the stage with such fine musicians as Tim Freedman (The Whitlams), Lior, iOTA, Epicure, Vika and Linda Bull (The Black Sorrows), and folk legend Eric Bogle.
In 2010, Loren is planning on releasing a new 5 track EP collaborating with acclaimed cellist, Mel Robinson (Tim Rogers, Missy Higgins).
If you get the chance to see Loren Kate anytime soon, don’t miss a performance that is bound to move your heart and soul!
