about the cd

This is a live performance of Kate attempting to sound like an underwater field recording of a creek. It incorporates a tub of water, a straw, nails, beads, bird horns, a whisk, steel wool, a small branch, rocks, a hollow log, a small drum and a zither. She has spent many years recording waterways, and here she thought to try and sound like one, emulating the snap of shrimp, the grunting of fish, and the mysterious rustles and groans she so often have enjoyed listening to underwater.
