Kate Smith is an artist who doesn’t fit into any one particular box.
She’s a captivating singer and performer, a versatile improviser, a producer and an entrepreneur, a leader and collaborator — a traveller between cultures and art forms. At the heart of her practice is the search for connections between people and disciplines. That quest has taken her from filming documentaries in Chinese oil fields, to leading choirs for mental health, to performing street theatre in rural Croatia. Currently based between London and Lisbon, Kate is passionate about transforming our relationship to the body by creating music - and facilitating collective music-making - for voices and bodies in motion.

“It is rare to find a performer who can move gracefully between musical precision, free improvisation and physical exploration.”
