She performs original songs and familiar classics in her live show, interweaving humorous anecdotes, philosophical musings, and her love of film with disarming candor and vulnerability. Her longtime band membersโ€™ keen and sensitive accompaniment allows Kat to freely veer off-script as sheโ€™s often inclined to do.

In the winter of 2022, Kat made her theatrical debut in “The Hang”: a new jazz opera by Taylor Mac and Matt Ray. Upon its opening, the off-off Broadway show received “Critic’s Pick” in The New York Times highlighting Kat’s “extraordinary artistry.” The show, “The Hang”, imagines the final hours of the life of Socrates as he asks his friends to use every moment left to think on virtue.
