About Me

My name is Katalyst aka GeeTee i am a singer,songwriter and rapper.I describe my style as hip-rock-soul because of the different styles of music that have influcenced me.I have been writing and peforming for about 10years and have jammed with Daniel Bedingfield and other great musicians. I play the drums and also dabble on keys although singing is my first love . My influences are very wide and diverse stemming from all the music my parents would play at home when i was growing up such as the soul of James Brown and Otis Redding, the metal of led Zepp and Thin Lizzy and rock& roll of the Beatles and the Stones.I also have a rich gospel background that was developed during my early singing days in gospel chiors which was essentially where i developed a good ear for harmony , melody and rhythm.I studied music at Lewisham College in South London where i graduated with a National Diploma in Popular Music. I have peformed at a number of popular london open mic venues including; Sugar sugar, The Spot ,Troy Bar and also done open air gigs at the annual Notting Hill Carnival for the past three years cosecutively.My dream is to make music that inspires the mind and touches the soul.p align=center
