KAT ABEL and LEO NATHAN
Kat Abel's music is shaped by real life, real friendship, and a lot of playing together.
If you’re new to them: think the soulful warmth of Olivia Dean and Corrine Bailey Rea and the playful, poetic songwriting of Nectar Wood, and the colourful, harmony-rich world of Hiatus Kaiyote — but with their own twist.
She has been described as an ‘“emotional fusion of soul and jazz, with a voice that would grace any genre”
Joining Kat is long-time collaborator Leo Nathan, fresh off his own headline tour. Leo’s music has been described as ‘capturing that golden in-between of being uplifting yet emotional, familiar yet fresh.’
Both Leo and Kat have been playing live on festival stages across the UK at Glastonbury, Boomtown, Secret Garden Party and Isle of Wight to name a few.
Their chemistry is the kind you can’t fake — they share a rhythm section and a kind of musical sibling energy that lifts everything they make together.
Expect retro soul, jazz colours, and modern pop energy, all in one warm, joyful, slightly chaotic cocktail.
KOLLAB FEEDBACK
"Wanted to say thank you for a really lovely open mic last night. This morning was the first time I have woken up feeling joyful without and dread dreams in the night for about two weeks. You created a really safe space and welcoming event. Loved your poems and they way you perform them is so engaging and absorbing. Marvellous. Thank you"
"Kollab last night was fab, and you hold the space in such a lovely, relaxed, friendly, helpful, kind, and yet still very organised (!) way. Also, amazing poetry! I've never been to anything like that before. I enjoyed it so much I will definitely be aiming to come to more"
