Coyote Whispers
KatRose is warm, openhearted and honest with a sound that lies somewhere between acoustic folk, rock, soul and gospel. Her performances convey her passion for life and her love of live music. The great female singer/songwriters such as Emily Saliers, Amy Ray, Caroline Aiken, Terri Hendrix and countless others have strongly influenced KatRose not only in music, but also in her philosophies of life itself and the world around her. KatRose has honed her skills around the campfires at Kerrville, performances and jams around the country.
As a prolific songwriter, KatRose paints sequences of vivid and passionate stories. From personal tales, growing up in a south Texas border town, powerful and sometimes disturbing lyrics on social issues or pure emotion on her journeys into romance and passion, KatRose absorbs the listener as she creates her canvas of musical images.
Tony on bass, Joel Mercado-See on keyboards, Kenyon White on lead and AJ Grammer on djembe... sometimes the wonderful flute, cello or harmonica comes along as well.... THE KAT ROSE BAND

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Yes, of course, the access to world music is broadening all facets of life.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, if given a good one that allows creative processes to flow. Would probably prefer to have my songs recorded by others that felt the tunes like I do.
