About Me

Kat McGivern knows that life is quite simply a series of stories; stories that teach you about the world, stories that haunt you, and stories that make you fall in love. This passionate singer-songwriter tells these stories through an infectious blend of electronic rock and ethereal vocals. Kat began her career in the New England coffee-house circuit in 2004. In the fall of that year, she released the self-produced album "Armor." "Buttons and Zippers," a track off of "Armor," landed Kat several awards from Garageband.com, including Track of the Day, Best Female Vocals, Best Guitars, Best Lyrics, Most Original, Best Melody, and Best Bitter Break-up Song. In January 2005 Kat began working on "Alice Lost.” ; a concept EP which tells the story of a young woman’s odyssey into the adult world, with all of its realities, illusions, and inevitable heartbreaks. It reflects Kat’s belief in the importance of stories in our lives. This powerful blend of rock ballads is both lyrically compelling and musically haunting. Alice lost was released in the fall of 2006 and gleamed quite an online following. Currently Kat is working on her third album with writer producer Cliff Goldmacher. The working title is Decorated and the Album is scheduled for release in the late fall of 2008."ALICE LOST" is finally out and you can only get it at http://www.cdfreedom.com/artists/katmcgivern/
