"an artist well worth paying attention to"
- Victory Music
Review
If hearing the name Kitty Donohoe brings to mind an award-winning songwriter
with three critically acclaimed albums to her credit, who successfully merges her Irish and American roots in her music, you'd
be right.
Based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Kitty creates music that is rich, luminous,
earthy and compelling. Backing herself on guitar, cittern and keyboard, she uses her 3-octave voice to sing her songs,
“...a voice that could ruffle
the feathers on any school boy’s neck.”
- Fast Folk Magazine
written with a love of language and an unerring sense of melody. With one
foot firmly planted in her Northern roots (Michigan) and the other tapping into her Irish heritage, her music resonates long
after her performances are done.
“her songs are heartfelt, direct,
and honest, delivered in a supple, textured voice that easily travels her complex melodies.”
- Ann Arbor
Observer
“far above and beyond most
singer-songwriters.”
- Rich Warren, of WFMT, Chicago
Kitty’s newest CD, “Northern Border”, will be released on June 16th.
Kitty and multi-instrumentalist David Mosher have combined forces (sometimes with hammered dulcimer whiz Doug Berch) as
“Eire America”, to perform the music of the British Isles and the US. More info here...
