Singer-songwriter Kate Chanson, a Park City native, shares her journey from growing up with a love for jazz, inspired by her grandmother, to becoming a full-time musician and single mother. She reflects on the challenges of establishing her vintage jazz style in a market that initially resisted it, eventually securing prominent local venues and creating immersive musical experiences.
Kate emphasizes the healing power of music, her commitment to original songwriting —particularly about motherhood — and her growing success with sold-out productions, all while balancing parenthood and artistic passion.
Kate performs two original songs in the KPCW studio: "Grace" and On My Way Up."
