Kate Walsh is a British singer/songwriter from Burnham-On-Crouch, Essex, a small fishing village. Her music is characterized by her beautiful voice and life caressing vocals. She is an artist who takes you away from the rush and madness of the world. Her music has a timeless quality, making it hard to believe she was only 20 when she released her first album (she was 23 when her second album, Tim's House, was released).

Kate is an example of an artist who skipped the traditional label publicity machine,and rose to popularity on iTunes. Her self-made album, "Tim's House" rose to #1 on the UK iTunes store. Her Myspace page, however, claims that she owns no ipod or walkman.

She includes Longpigs, Joni Mitchell, Tori Amos, Rufus Wainwright, The Shins, Talk Talk, The Velvet Underground, Pink Floyd, Red House Painters, Magnet, Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, and Sufjan Stevens among her influences.
