Flow

Listen for echos of Regina Spektor, Nancy Kerr, Guy Garvey and Anais Mitchell all of whose influence can be found within the sound of the new album Flow (produced by Mattie Foulds - Karine Polwart, Rachel Newton, Adam Holmes and The Embers). During the making of Flow, Katie explored the concept of creative flow and the ways in which we inspire artistic responses in one another through a community response project in her local communities.

Working with four community groups from across the North East of England and award winning playwright Laura Lindow, the band played early versions of the songs and encouraged artistic responses from the groups which have gone on to inform the final recordings and performance. Responses ranged from a fully choreographed dance piece from inclusive dance company Tin Arts in County Durham - which will be celebrated in the video to their first single Hurricane to photography, poetry, painting and musical compositions. This type of work is a natural progression for Katie who has worked with theatre companies such as the RSC, Northern Stage, November Club and Open Clasp for many years.
