Kat’s auto-biographical album a vulnerable journey through being misunderstood, lost in translation and coming to terms with and embracing being autistic, released in 2019.
Album Review
Many readers of the Cross Rhythms website will have read Kat's piece where she bravely explains how she was diagnosed with autism. This album of self-composed songs deals with deep issues of personhood and a relationship with God that such a diagnosis brought to the surface. There's much here which is melodically engaging piano-driven pop with Kat's bright and expressive voice able to handle fast, mid and slow tempos while the production is neatly organic. The three standout tracks - all chosen for Cross Rhythms radio - are the mid-tempo "Not Made Wrong" which boldly declares that the Lord has created Kat different from most folk but definitely not wrong; "The Words Won't Come" with a bit of electric guitar giving edge to another mid-tempo song; and "Diamond In The Rough", a plea for people not to write off this brave and erudite crafter of intensely personal songs.
