British singer/songwriter Kate Walsh became one of the U.K.'s most celebrated newcomers with the release of her second album, Tim's House, which became the first album by an unsigned artist to ever top the digital charts. Born in Burnham-on- Crouch, a quiet fishing community in the town of Essex, she was surrounded by a wide variety of music while growing up, from her father's Pink Floyd records to her brother's electronic music. While still a young girl, Kate took piano lessons and developed a talent for interpreting the works of Debussy and Ravel, although it wasn't until she picked up a guitar in her teens that she began writing her own music. Inspired by the likes of Joni Mitchell, Tori Amos, and Talk Talk, Walsh's songs proved to be sad, beautiful tales of love and romantic disappointment that displayed a wisdom beyond her years, and when she enrolled in the London College of Music and Media at the age of 18, she met a representative from the independent Kitchenware label who took a keen interest in her music. Having spent recent years raising a family and teaching piano, Kate has now rekindled her love of composition and a desire to play these new songs live... Welcome back Ms Walsh. Presented by DMP.
