kat is back.
Soulful yet funky, Aachen jazz singer Kat is back - with a young band from Aachen as well as a duo with Timo Schmidt (guitar), she is performing her self-produced debut album, which was released in April 2023 and was nominated for the German Jazz Prize in the "Vocals" category in 2024. With her intimate, smooth sound, she creates a casual lounge atmosphere that immediately creates a unique mood of sultry relaxation.
Inspirations and influences:
Sade, Nina Simone, Melody Gardot, Olivia Dean, Lianne La Havas
about kat
Kat's musical influence stretches back to her days in Texas. Here she came into contact with jazz, blues & gospel as a child. In 2016, Kat created her own neo-soul sound and released her first EP "Solo", entirely on her own. Since then, she has continuously honed her sound and surpassed herself as an artist.
For a year now, young talents from Aachen have been on board, practicing the live version of the album. Through their own individual influences and sounds, it has made the music come to life even more, and make sure you don't miss the chance to hear Kat & the band live!
