You could call Kate Schutt a musical triathlete....

"From the first notes I heard, I knew Kate was the real deal. A huge talent." - Maria Schneider

"Kate Schutt's masterful NO LOVE LOST is meticulously composed and beautifully performed." -  ALL ABOUT JAZZ, Eyal Hareuveni

"With songs that flow seamlessly from track-to-track, Kate displays the poise and execution of a seasoned performer on a major label. From the provocative string arrangements on the projects' opening song, "How Much In Love," to the most commercial track, "Raining," this CD is a treat for both new and old school lovers of Jazz (who will especially appreciate the stellar "Wrecking Ball"). Other gems that fortify this project, "Two Halves," "The Moon Got Broken," and "I'm Yours" make this a CD that can - and should - be listened to in its entirety for a more fulfilling and complete experience. Not to be overlooked is the spunky, Jazzy rendition of Sheila E's "Glamorous Life," which was bold, ambitious, and successful." -  THE MUSE'S MUSE, Gian Fiero

Buzz artist and guitar-wonder Kate Schutt performs across the United States and Canada.
Summer 2009, she celebrates the release of her newest album TELEPHONE GAME (Artistshare/USA & Cuto-EMI/Canada).

Jon Garelick of The Boston Phoenix calls her "a phenomenal up-and-coming singer, Harvard and Berklee kid Kate Schutt is an assured singer/songwriter/guitarist with a smoky, understated delivery."

A provocative and soulful performer, Kate performs songs from TELEPHONE GAME as well as her acclaimed 2007 debut NO LOVE LOST, winner of the 2007 John Lennon Songwriting Contest for the track "How Much In Love."
Ms. Schutt's has won multiple ASCAP Plus Awards for Jazz Composition (2006-2009) and has appeared at such festivals as South By Southwest, North By Northeast, the Vancouver Folk Festival, the Ouro Preto Tudo e Jazz Festival (Brazil) and the Hillside Festival.

A constant collaborator, she has worked with artists as diverse as Justin Faulkner (Branford Marsalis), John Ellis (Charlie Hunter), Terri Lyne Carrington (Herbie Hancock), and Viktor Krauss (Lyle Lovett, Bill Frisell) to name only a few.

You could call Kate Schutt a musical triathlete. She is a creative triple threat - a guitarist, producer and singer/songwriter of rare skill and originality. Telephone Game, Kate’s second, self-produced, full-length album, is a remarkably lush, melodic record that deftly walks the line between pop, soul and jazz. A myriad of styles and influences, Telephone Game showcases Kate’s innate ability to write from various perspectives and in different voices. A provocative, soulful performer and a constant collaborator, Kate has worked with the likes of John Ellis (Charlie Hunter), Terri Lyne Carrington (Herbie Hancock), and Viktor Krauss (Lyle Lovett, Bill Frisell), to name only a few.
