Biografie
The words 'soul-stirring" have been used to describe the alluring vocal style of singer-songwriter Katt Rockell. With a voice that cuts through the fluff and strikes a nerve, Katt often touches upon the truth about life in such a way that makes it hard not to stop and listen. Her message is clear. We love, we lose, we win and we fall…and when we get up, hopefully we are better for having gone through it all. Her body of work reveals the clear intent to honestly reveal who she is, not only as an artist but also as a person.
After teaming up with production heavyweights BudaDaFuture & Grandz, it was easy to see that something very special was happening creatively. They back her up with hard-hitting, and oftentimes gritty music production that perfectly contradicts and compliments Katt's vocal style. Infused with elements of hip hop, old school soul and pop, the end results are stories that are beautifully and refreshingly woven together.
Having grown up with parents that were both gospel singers, Katt was heavily influenced by gospel music along with the unforgettable soul and R&B records from the 70's, 80's & early 90's. Her inspirations range from artists like Shirley Caesar and Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5, to Al Green and Sade. All of these artists possess a similar hypnotic quality that draws the listener in and commands attention.
As the pulse of the music industry continues to change, the importance of an artist's live stage show remains consistent. Katt brings her songs to life with riveting performances filled with energetic highs and vulnerable lows that take the audience on a journey all her own. The experience is one that should not be missed and will be remembered long after the show is over.
