Kat Edmonson

Jazz chanteuse Kat Edmonson may have had no formal training, but the young vocalist possesses one of the most authentic voices to ever croon selections from the Great American Songbook. One listen to the Austin native's ethereal purr is enough to hook even the most casual music fan, and her song "Lucky" was featured on the MTV series United States of Tara.

It was Edmonson's mother's record collection and old movies that initially stirred her artistic soul, but having a career in music wasn't initially a given. After a stint at college in Charleston, South Carolina, Edmonson returned to Austin and decided to follow the musical call. An audition for America Idol in 2002 landed Edmonson a trip to Hollywood and a spot in the top 48. Her Idol dreams ended abruptly when judge Randy Jackson told the singer she didn't "look like a star." After her exit from Idol, Edmonson began honing her chops at open-mike nights and eventually made the transition to full-time performer. Her debut album, 2009's Take to the Sky, was a mix of classic and modern songs, and proved Edmonson was more than ready for her jazz ascension. In 2012, she returned with the Kickstarter-funded Way Down Low. ~ Todd Sterling, Rovi

I liked her voice a lot, and style, etc., but I am very very slightly bothered that she sounds quite a bit like Billie Holliday. But only a bit. She's quite a singer.
60 and just fell in love

Being told she didn't look like a star is like saying a Ferrari didn't look, or sound, like a car. So much for 'expert' judgement. Go Kat, go.

she is hot
She was a true star at the live Prairie Home Companion in Austin this past weekend .... LOVE HER!
Just saw Kat at the Paramount Theater...ab s o l u t e l y captivating. It was like you were in this delightful trance of sad to funny feelings. So wonderful to go to a concert and have it all about a voice that rings so pure and simply devine.

What a beautiful voice she has. But the remake of The Cure's Just Like Heaven is absolutely awful.

A voice of her own. A style of her own. A timeless presentation with passion. We must have another album.
I was fortunate to play bass for her on the island of Kauai. If beauty were music, she'd be a symphony.... S h e glows stardom. A very sweet personality as well!
Voice of an angel !! Just when you thought Billie Holiday's spirit had gone !!! Thank you Kat Edmonson
ACL last night - great! This is a classy lady. Love her style.
Who is randy jackson and why should i care what he thinks?
Absolutely timeless in appeal, and of course Randy doesn't look like one of the Jacksons....
I really like Kat's unique voice. I'm hearing her voice on TV commercials (or it's someone copying her sound). The very no-talented Randy Jackson is the luckiest person in the world to be where he is.
Terrific voice... wow!
Yep! Sooooooooooo o o easy to listen to....Therap e u t i c ! ! ! to the core!!

I could listen to Kat all day......so glad she's following her spiritual track!
Just played bass, backing her up, here on Kauai. She sang 'Lucky.' This girl is destined for stardom. She is as beautiful a woman as I've ever seen and as sweet as can be. Her allure is stunning....

Randy Jackson s taste has always been in his mouth.

Every now and then, someone comes along who deserves a long, gentle hug, and a whispered Thank you for sharing your talent with us. :-)

Who is Randy Jackson and why does he matter?
ggourmet
same here, heard her on NPR...wow, what a voice...she may not be an American Idol but I am sure when people are saying Whos Kelly Clarkson Kat will leave a legacy that generations will listen to even after shes leaves this earth
Heard her on NPR and had to check her out! Great style, very soothing and memorable voice!
Sure nuf Bro's B.D. came to my mind on the first note!

Star…? Kate Esmond's voice is too good for stardom. Beyond haunting, she is the treasure found at the end of a journey; the light in a black hole; the arrival of a new dimension in a new reality. I have never heard a voice such as hers. She makes goose bumps, while invoking emotions I have never before felt. Aye-Aye-Aye! I want to hear it again and again. Oh… hey… What’s up Randy Jackson?

Yeah, as I've always said, American Idol is tripe. Edmonson's difficulties there just reinforce my perspective.
If death wasn't forever, she has a voice to die for!
First saw Kat Edmonson Trio at Z-Tejas on Wednesday nights a couple years ago... great treat with dinner, so proud her music has moved to Pandora so everyone could check her out!
You're right Carlo, I was thinking Blossom Dearie before I checked. She is the new Blossom...
Blossom Dearie de ja vu.....very nice. How could you not like this voice.
My initial reaction was "Say wha???" but I must say her version of "Just Like Heaven" brought a smile to my face. What a wonderful and original talent.
First listen!!! One of a kind I say. Love the voice, love the style.
Saw this girl at a wine fest in austin last summer, she stopped me in my tracks. Absolutly amazing. you go girl.
Love this native "Texan"!!!!! You move me.
mprzedpelski
Great!
jmcbride25
I like her! I like her a lot!
eibgrad
LOL, when I first heard this recording, I thought it was Blossom Dearie!
Saw her opening for Lyle Lovett in July 2010. Great live performer -- I've been hooked.
Love, love, love her voice. Can't stop listening to this album. Backing musicians are great. You have to be in such a minimalist sound as this; no place to hide poor playing or singing. Absolute favorite track is Charade although I bought it for Lovefool.
