Kate's Irishness

[Wendy Collinson <wendy.c@ndirect.co.uk>]

Kate is English, born in Kent I believe, but her mother was Irish.  

Kate uses Irish musicians, instruments, rhythms and mythologies which
add yet more dimensions to her beautiful music but I'm sure I read once
somewhere that despite Kate having visited Ireland on many occasions,
she said it had not felt like "home" to her, or she had not felt a
connection that she expected to have, given the obvious extent of the
Irish influence on her musically.   (I hope I have not misquoted her
here, otherwise these musings are a bit of bollocks, really!).  I find
this very interesting.

Love & Regards,

Wendy
