Kat Eaton
“I'm blown away! I wasn't expecting that...I'm very very impressed!”
Robert Elms, BBC Radio London
In the 5 years since she came to London from her home town of Sheffield Kat Eaton has established herself as a singer and songwriter of talent, breadth and genuine creativity. Originally discovered through Mark Forrest on BBC Introducing, Kat's singles ‘Giving It Up’ and ‘The Joker’ earned her strong support from the late Terry Wogan & Vanessa Feltz on BBC Radio 2 and Robert Elms and Gaby Roslin on BBC Radio London. Kat’s latest single "Where Were We" (released in May ’19) is currently on the BBC Radio London and NPO Radio 5 playlists. She lists her influences as, amongst many others, Janis Joplin, Joe Cocker, Tom Waits and Bonnie Raitt and describes her music as "..having its roots in blues, soul and country. If you like Amy Winehouse, John Mayer or Little Feat you should dig my kind of music too". Highly experienced she has performed in Holland, Czech Republic, France and Ireland as well as touring the UK supporting various artists, selling out multiple headline shows in London and co-writing with the likes of Ruby Turner. Lately, Kat has been in the studio recording her debut full-length album due to be released in early 2020, and has also been supporting The Teskey Brothers and well as touring with Jools Holland. Performing a mix of songs from her previous releases as well as songs to be heard on her upcoming CD, Kat this evening will be accompanied by an A list band of Joe Glossop-piano, Nick Atkinson-guitar, Jon Cox-bass and Sebastian Hankins-drums. A genuine talent!
