Introducing Katie Kate & “Uh…No” “Uh…No” – http://www.bantermm.com/tracks/KatieKate-Uh…No.mp3
Katie Kate, aka, Kate Finn, is a dynamic rapper, producer and vocalist who has secured for herself “a prominent spot in Seattle hip hopʼs increasing crowded upper echelon.” (The Stranger) Her recent release, debut album Flatland, has been lauded as “one of the best offerings all year” (The Stranger) and “a stellar introduction to an exceptional multifaceted talent.” (KEXP) Hailing from a small farm in upstate New York, Katie Kate earned her degree in classical piano from Cornish College of the Arts in 2009. With a strong foundation in classical composition and multi-instrumentalism, Katie Kateʼs music reflects “a muscular sense of composition or design”, layered with unique pop elements and “a leonine, hard-eyed swag.” (The Stranger) Drawing strength from her inherent contradictions, Katie Kate weaves together a sharp, undulating flow with slick, driving electronic-beats into a style that is “dark, cold and cosmopolitan” (C. Mudede). Reminiscent of Robyn, Santigold, and even Beans, Kate is “one of Seattleʼs bad- asses” (T. Moorman), and is poised to bring her unique sound to a much wider audience. In the words of Larry Mizell, Jr., “Make room.”
