Best of 2007 ...
NO LOVE LOST received some good news from the online songwriting website / resource known as the Muse's Muse (http://www.musesmuse.com/).

Senior reviewer Gian Fiero named NO LOVE LOST as 2007's "Best Jazz Vocal CD." He also tapped the song "Raining" as the "Best Jazz Single" of 2007. He loved Kate's version of "Glamorous Life" as well -- naming it the "Best Cover Song" of 2007.
The Latest NO LOVE LOST Review ...
... just came in from Philly. Jonathan Takiff has this to say: "I'm kicking myself that I missed Kate Schutt's recent visit to the Tin Angel. Her self-released and exquisitely produced "No Love Lost" (www.kateschutt.com, A-) is one of the finer female singer-songwriter sets of the year. Fans of Norah Jones will feel the warmth."

For the record: Kate didn't play the Tin Angel (she can't even get her foot in the door over there, but we digress...). She DID play the TRITONE. She calls it one of her "all-time" favorite clubs. Vibe for miles. Don't ask to use the house deck of playing cards, though. It only has 47 cards in it. That's not enough to play Hearts; it is enough to play War.
