Captivating audiences in the Boulder/Denver area with her sometimes jazzy kinda pop/folk sound, Kathy is happily being compared to some of her favorite songwriters: Joni Mitchell, Jonatha Brooke, Shawn Colvin. Dubbed a “master lyricist” by musical playwright Judylynn Schmidt, (The Awakening of Angel DeLuna), Kathy’s muse weaves the mundane with the metaphysical to form a truly uplifting tapestry of sound and images, encouraging us to: dream big, be unique, love deeply, live gratefully, forgive wholeheartedly, remember who we are.

Her songwriting hobby turned career pursuit in 2002 when Kathy entered a national songwriting competition and was named a top ten finalist (2 yrs in a row) and was invited to perform at the Wildflower Music Festival in TX. Shortly after, Kathy released her debut CD, Dream. Kathy has also been a finalist in Boulder’s Folk Awards and Denver’s Swallow Hill Songwriter’s Competition. Her lyrics have been published in Mystic Pop Magazine. Her song, I Am Here, will be featured in a prime time TV documentary, Dying To Live, in Australia in 2009. Her youtube music video featuring the song, All Is Given, continues to receive a 5 star rating with rave reviews and over 36,000 views. Other career highlights include opening for best selling authors and speakers, Dannion Brinkley (Save By The Light) and Terry Cole-Whitaker (What You Think of Me Is None of My Business).

Kathy is currently recording her 2nd CD with 3x Grammy winner, producer, Tom Wasinger.
