Don’t miss this month’s featured artist KATE GAFFNEY!

For Kate, music “is all about the songs and the players,” and her second full-length album, The Coachman (DIG Music), finds her blending soulful songwriting and resonant baritone with players she admires from both the Americana and jam-band scenes. Kate admires those genres, she says, because it appeals to “the people who want something new, but who are steeped in the old ways.” These are the song-focused acts she discovered in high school like The Beatles, Crosby Stills Nash and Young and the not-very-sensitive-singer-songwriter riffage of Led Zeppelin.

In 2003, Kate (orignally from Pennsylvania) made a brief stop in Austin, Texas where she met meet the late, great Clifford Antone, musical entrepreneur and talent-spotter, who told her she was good enough to make a living with music. She didn’t stick around Austin, but continued home and landed herself back in Philadelphia, playing clubs and doing a “brutal” internship playing four-hour shows on the Jersey Shore. It toughened her as a performer and inspired another spurt of songwriting which resulted in her first EP, Highways and her first full length album, The New Then in 2005. She also gained more gigging experience with a residency at the World Café Live in Philly and was invited by Americana guru Gene Shay to play on his show on the influential AAA station WXPN.

In 2007, once again armed with inspiration and a batch of new songs, Gaffney went into the studio in Philadelphia, then on to LA to finish recording the tracks that would become her soon-to-be-released, The Coachman. Making the album, produced by Barrie Maguire (Amos Lee, Natalie Merchant), surrounded Kate with a producer and musicians that would help bring Kate’s vision to fruition. She had a lot of help, with a cast of amazing musicians including jamb and stalwart Steve Kimock on guitar, pedal steel ace Greg Leisz, The Innocent Criminals (Ben Harpers’s band mates) and multi-instrumentalists Jackie Greene, Andrew Lipke and Nate LaPointe.

Kate’s growing resume includes supporting Richie Havens, Loudon Wainwright, Jo Dee Messina and Sophie B. Hawkins. Her past travels across the country have also provided Kate with some career shaping opportunities such as singing the National Anthem for the Philadelphia Phillies, performances at Club Passim, The Tin Angel, The Fillmore San Francisco and World Café Live.

Smitten by the music, Kate Gaffney is poised to hit the road ready to support The Coachman with heavy regional and national touring. If all of this isn’t enough from Kate’s relatively young career, she has recently signed with DIG Music (who helped launch the careers of Jackie Greene, Chris Webster and Sal Valentino). Add to this a world-class marketing team from across the country and you have the makings of one hard-to-beat-high-flying-Americana songstress.
