Hello - I’m Kat Downs!
I am the Piano Destroyer/Voice/Songwriter/Dreamer for Sit Kitty Sit
the epic Hard Piano Rock Duo.
My main genre is songwriting/performance - but I also do a ton of other creative projects such as videos and blogging and poetry and and and... if you want an in-depth look you can read more here.
We haven't released an album in four long years and you get to watch all the behind the scenes of getting this incredible record out the door and into your hands.
2. My new Solo Project being born
Cleverly named "Kat Downs" I'm experimenting with live piano/vocals played to electronica-style backing tracks that I'm also creating from scratch. This is all new to me too, so successes and failures abound.
3. New Blogs and Poetry
This year I'm focusing on writing. SKS's new album, "Tectonic", is deeply personal and I've decided to just go ahead and write about all of it. Some blogs and poems will go public after I post them here, some will just be for you guys.
4. Sanity Crafts
As always. When I get stuck on my big-picture stuff I go do small detail-oriented stuff like crochet or lyric sheets, or woodburning, or cooking, or you name it. Activities like that help me sort out my brain. I post pictures of all the stuff I make and some of it goes up for sale on Sit Kitty Sit's Bandcamp page.
Thank you for helping me make everything I make - I look forward to knowing you better!
