Kate Ferguson is a singer-songwriter from Devon. With a unique soprano vocal style accompanied by fingerstyle guitar, Kate's love of singing has always been at the forefront of her life.
Kate first established herself in the folk genre, with her debut album 'Sweet Confusion' being featured on BBC Introducing and BBC Radio Devon. As her musical tastes developed, she explored 1920s and 30s jazz, forming a speakeasy duo, 'Hot Ginger' with guitarist Rich Hamer. Her current solo style has retained the easy listening feel of her folk music, blended with the elements of pop and jazz she has come to know and love, resulting in an original and accessible style of modern music.
She has been commissioned for her songwriting by The Box and Plymouth City Council, and has also worked as a session singer for independent artists, as well organisations such as LVM Productions. Kate is currently studying for her MA in Music at Plymouth University alongside her recording and singing projects.
