Self-released

This album came about after dedicating two full years of only performing and touring. Having graduated from college to immerse herself in the musician's life of living off little, sleeping in vans and on the floors of those who would graciously welcome her to a home after a show, and not breathing anything outside of music, Instant Clarification was the testament to finding identity and seeing the world through a set of independent eyes. Engineered and mixed at Alley Recording in Valparaiso, IN with Ryan Herma, this pop-produced full length showcases a richer sound, thoughtful lyrics, and a overall theme of reflection.

Kate was joined by Will Schnabel on the drums, Courtney Sourwine on cello, and Ryan Herma playing bass and layering extra guitars and programming.
