HEAR: Kat Quinn – “That String”

Kat Quinn

“That String”

Rust To Gold

Hello, dear readers.  You are certainly experiencing one of my major schizophrenic days.  I love this woman.  Kat Quinn reminds me of Regina Spektor.  As with Spektor, don’t get fooled by a simple melody and a pretty face; there is a lot boiling beneath the surface of Quinn.  “That String” is a fun song with a message.

Take a breath and let it out
Take a step don’t turn around
Let is loose with all you got
Take a needle hear it pop!

Let go of that string
You don’t need anything to hold you up
You are strong enough
Just wave goodbye
To that dot in the sky
Sorry to spoil the surprise
But you’re gonna be just fine…

I love these lyrics.  Quinn delivers this with a beautiful melody and simple piano work.  The production is never overbearing.  There is nothing added extra.  And that makes the song perfect.  I can’t wait to hear what she releases next.
