Kate Bee is a writer from New York who went to college to study counseling psychology and currently spends her days playing with children in Cleveland, Ohio. She does not enjoy crossword puzzles, nail polish, or wearing shoes; but takes great pleasure in cooking delicious vegan food, climbing on rocks, and painting with all of the colors of the wind. She prefers to be outside whenever possible, climbing, swimming, hiking, and generally adventuring. She is not too particular about genre of music, but finds certain niches where she finds herself most at home. She never gets sick of Old Crow Medicine Show, Olof Arnalds, Beethoven, Cats in Boots, or Cake.

Quiet House and Tiny Messengers–Two Folk Bands For Your Tuesday Night In

I looooove the way that Quiet House’s self titled album opens.  “Evening Hymn” is an absolutely breathtaking song. I would love an entire album of gentle hymnic, harmonious, a capella melodies like this, please.  The whole album is pretty sweet, though.  It sounds …

Album Review: AM and Shawn Lee’s “Outlines”–Futuristic Soul Music

Ok, so these guys are cool.  Their sound is really great, but here’s the really neat them about AM and Shawn Lee—they don’t record together.  They just send the songs back and forth between LA and London until they’re perfect.  They have some …

Album Check: Chris Marshall and the August Light–Some Kind of Dream

I was a runner in highschool but then I had a knee injury and a hip injury from running, from dance.  I’m still really active.  I do ballet, yoga, hike, pilates but I don’t run.  Not much makes me feel like running. I …

Kate’s Top Albums–2015

Here’s the good stuff, kids.  In no particular order (unless indicated), these are my favorite new albums I have listened to this year. Morgan Mecaskey’s “Lover Less Wild” Morgan has a gorgeous, divergent, smokey voice and a bluesy, rock and roll style.  She …

Gorgeous New Video From Benjamin’s Brother.

I’ve covered Benjamin’s Brother here before. He’s got this cool, softened, Brit-pop-ish sound.  It’s really beautiful.  I highly recommend his album.  It’s one of the ones that I turn to often.  He released a new video a couple of weeks ago that is …

Calgary James–Bay Cruisin’

It’s sunny and gorgeous here in Cleveland today.  I know that most of the people on the internet think that daylight savings is a meaningless, worthless, and outdated construct but gaining that hour this weekend has seemingly brought me new life. As it …

Album Review: Bearcoon–El Guapo

These songs are the black and white polaroids you find in a basket in an antique store.  The ones that are captivating enough to grab your attention, to make you wonder, “Who has touched this before me? What happened to it that it’s …

Album Review: Seneca and the River EP

I just got back from some time in the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon.  We were fortunate enough to be able to attend the most lovely wedding.  I’d never been there despite growing up only a couple of hours away.  I didn’t expect it to …

Album Review: Poema– “Pretty Speeches”–strong, loamy girl-pop.

Poema is a sister band which is powerful.  I love sister bands.  Ella and Shaeleen grew up in New Mexico and have been working, playing, and surviving with each other all over the country since they were small ones.  They semi-recently moved to …
