“It's easy to get a summer crush on singer/songwriter Kate Schutt, playing the "Telephone Game" (ArtistShare). She's an enticingly languid vocalist, wry composer and a sophisticated arranger in the pop/jazz vein, a natural next step for fans of Norah, Madeleine, Rickie Lee and Edie.”

9/3/2010 6:07:14 PM - You could call Kate Schutt a musical triathlete. She is a creative triple threat - a guitarist, producer and singer/songwriter of rare skill and originality. Telephone Game, Kate’s second, self-produced, full-length album, is a remarkably lush, melodic record that deftly walks the line between pop, soul and jazz. A myriad of styles and influences, Telephone Game showcases Kate’s innate ability to write from various perspectives and in different voices.
Jon Garelick of The Boston Phoenix recently hailed her "as a phenomenal up-and coming singer," saying "Harvard and Berklee kid Kate Schutt is an assured singer/songwriter/guitarist with a smoky, understated delivery." A provocative, soulful performer and a constant collaborator, Kate has worked with the likes of John Ellis (Charlie Hunter), Terri Lyne Carrington (Herbie Hancock), and Viktor Krauss (Lyle Lovett, Bill Frisell), to name only a few. Kate will play songs from The Telephone Game as well as her acclaimed 2007 debut No Love Lost, winner of the 2007 John Lennon Songwriting Contest for the track "How Much In Love."
