Kate Campbell

In Kate Campbell, you will find a literate, perceptive song writer with a social conscience and a heart for the tributaries of humanity.  She writes songs with melodies made to sing, and records them with sparse- but rich- arrangements. Her voice carries both the strength and clarity of Joan Baez with the heart-warming familiarity of that girl you knew in high school that would sing folk songs around the summer campfires.

You cannot go wrong with any of her recordings. Her latest release- Wandering Strange- is an unabashed gospel album, but with that special Kate Campbell touch.  Her earlier works- Rosaryville, Visions of Plenty, Moonpie Dreams, and Songs from the Levee -are all excellent and choosing one is difficult.

By all means, go to see and hear her in person, and do not be afraid to talk to her afterwards.  She is comfortably approachable, genuinely pleased to talk with listeners, and warmly grateful for their support.

Her performance will make you laugh, cry, and think; and isn't that what artists are supposed to do anyway?
