Kate Watson

Meet American Idol, Kate Watson. Kate Watson is a rising star on the female country music scene. Proud of her Texas roots, she still calls it “home.” Kate's music career may have officially started when she was 15 years old, but music has always been at the center of her life. As the daughter of Christian recording artist and worship leader, Jesse Watson, Kate’s first recording was a song her father wrote especially for her called, “Forever I’m Yours.” Kate also guest leads alongside her dad at Lone Star Cowboy Church in Montgomery, Texas, the largest cowboy church in the world and the spiritual home of several country recording artists, most notably, Cody Johnson and Jesse Raub, Jr. In fact, their church is where country recording star, Parker McCollum, first heard Kate sing. “She’s the real deal,” said McCollum. “She has the total package: the voice, the look, and the way she connects with people. I am looking forward to great things from her.”

You may remember Kate from the 2019 season of American Idol, where she received a standing ovation from Lionel Richie after singing his hit, “Hello.” Her vocal chops are hard-earned; not to mention, Kate's stage presence is simply captivating. Kate Watson fans will tell you that she obviously loves creating music, working hard, and seeing results. Most importantly, though, her fans have come to know that Kate truly loves people. Her main goal in life is to inspire audiences and provide hope through her songwriting and her live performances.
