Kate’s debut album St. Eustacia, is a blindingly refreshing, and a magical insight into her world that should soon be cherished as a debut that transcends the constraints of the singer-songwriter genre.
Each listen reveals another bewitching moment that should see Kate soundtracking your dusky cinematic moments, sitting amidst today’s radio playlists or running through your head. Many may be surprised by the confidence and songwriting finesse displayed herein, but this record has been a long time in the making.
Rich in emotion and musical acumen, St. Eustacia has the ability to move listeners into a melancholic world of possibilities. St. Eustacia was recorded at Ape Studios, which is inspired by classic studios such as Motown, Sun Studios and Abbey Road. With an emphasis on analogue recording using equipment mainly from the 1940's -1970's, and reputedly recorded on the same Helios desk as The Who's Who’s Next and Quadrophenia, the resulting album sounds anything but dated, instead barriers have long been cast aside, resulting in a bustling debut that flirts between, stripped down folk, powerful acoustic anthems, even tripped out sparseness, electronic soundscapes and leftfield breaks, without ever getting lost in itself.
