Kat Edmonson is an award-winning songwriter and singer "with an equal foothold in jazz, cabaret and vintage cosmopolitanism pop" (The New York Times). She has been featured on Austin City Limits, Tiny Desk Concerts, A Prairie Home Companion, and The Late Show.
The New York Times describes her music as “fresh as a spring bouquet” while NPR says, “Hearing Edmonson makes it virtually impossible to do anything but stop and listen.”
Kat Edmonson and her band perform new songs from her seventh record (out February 2025) as well as highlights from previous albums. She'll interweave humorous stories about herself and her music throughout the show with disarming candor and vulnerability. The gamine singer is “intuitive about melody and handy with a turn of phrase (The New York Times).” “She's a savvy student of '60s film soundtracks, jazz-pop stylists and Brill Building songcraft, nodding to her influences at every turn. But her take on those stylized musical languages is so fresh and fluent that the referencing never feels cumbersome (NPR).”
