Kathy Brown always knew she could sing. From the tender age of 9, Kathy was a regular member of her church choir in her native South Carolina. It was during this period, singing in church and watching & listening to her idols Aretha Franklin and Patti Labelle that she developed her signature vocal style. With her strong combination of R&B and gospel influences , Kathy has remained a sought after artist with an impressive list of credits that include ; “Can't Play Around”, “ Turn Me Out ” , “Stronger On My Own”, “Joy” , “Don't Leave”, “Get Another Love”, “Give It Up” and “ Over You”.
Kathy has worked with a virtual who's who of dance producers including David Morales, Warren Clark, Ricky Morrison, The Layabouts, The Strings of Life and Ron Carroll. Now she completes the circle by reconnecting with David Shaw (producer of “Can’t Play Around”, ”Turn Me Out”, "I Appreciate" (Cutting Records) and Deep Influence on several new collaborations, “Feel the Music" and "Love and Pain" available on Kontinuous Music. "Tell Me Why" (due out fall 2011) and "Give Your Love" (2012). Kathy hopes to complete an LP's worth of material with Kontinuous produced material and material from outside producers. She has also had a busy summer. She's been in the UK collaborating with UK producers Andrew Galea, on "After Party" by The Nytestylers and Kathy Brown and an as yet unfinished LP track for UK DJ/production team The 2 Good Souls. Also, she’s made a quick trip to Italy to record "Show Me Love" with Italian Producer Mickey More.
Kathy writes most of the lyrics of both tracks along with the producers. A talented vocal arranger, she also shares producing credit on the Kontinuous tracks. “It's easy, we just vibe together and in no time at all we are on to something" Kathy says. When she isn’t on the road in the United Kingdom or Europe, Kathy is home in South Carolina writing material and working with her son Lavelle and her many talented family members. She is also actively recruiting young local hip hop talent, which Lavelle is producing. "There will come a time when I stop performing. I eventually plan to evolve and develop my career in other areas”, Kathy lets on with a wink and a nod. Kathy Brown isn't going anywhere; she's been a fixture on the dance scene for the last ten plus years and she looks ready to complete another big year!
