Featuring a rootsy brand of all-American 70’s pop-rock, Stronger echoes the timeless era of west coast singers like Stevie Nicks, Linda Ronstadt, and Joni Mitchell. Written and recorded with an expansive crew of well-respected Californians-including Brett Dennen and former Dawes member Blake Mills-Kate’s new collection shows off the careful development of a singular voice. Stronger also introduces a deeply thoughtful songwriter coming into her own. “Maybe I’m a late bloomer,” Kate admits with an infectious chuckle, “but I think I’ve reached such a place of honesty with this album. It’s me coming out and telling my stories. This is where I came from.”
