QUOTES
"Westfall is very timely in this age of cynicysm. Her lyrics and poetry are very refreshing, thought provoking, and at times, very, very funny."
-David Miller, Loveland Magazine
"'Vokate' gathers a wide range of influences to create a lush new musical world." "Westfall's music isn't so much emerging from one place or style as it is an ocean touching upon the shores of many lands...creating a lush, seductive musical fabric that sweeps the listener away." "She builds her world in loops and layers, pyramids of sounds and watery harmonies." "Her vocal range is impressive, going from a throaty alto to a sweet soprano while at the same time freely traveling along the continuum from folk style to polished poise."
-Mark Jordan, Mount Vernon News
"Sounds sort of like Sweet Honey in the Rock meets Imogen Heap."
-jujubeebop, Amie Street
"Very cool mix of a strong bluesy-folk vocal track with a'cappella backing - no instruments, just vocals, but works very well."
-jamieshanks, Amie Street
"Kate Westfall is what would happen if the acappella Camille had an accident with Ollabelle. Rootsy vocal-driven songs with that "down to the river to pray" (O Brother Where Art Thou) feel to them. Original and fantastic."
-TheTheory, Amie Street
"Strong vocal and a'cappella backing mix - really strong, rich voice too, worth a listen :)"
-jamieshanks, Amie Street
