More Artist Info

Originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Kate Ashby-Craft started off as a voice and theatre major in University. However, wanting to experience other kinds of music, Kate ended up going on the road for the next twenty years being the lead singer in various groups and touring parts of Canada and the U.S.A. performing most genres of music. In the early eighties, Kate won a talent search in her home province and recorded two singles, both of which did well on the Canadian country charts. Also at that time she co-wrote a song called Was It Easy which was number 11 on the Canadian country charts for the year 1986. Wanting to pursue her songwriting, Kate came off the road in the early 1990’s and settled in Southwestern Ontario. During the next few years, Kate taught herself to play piano and in the fall of 1995 released her debut CD The Heart and The Mind. The first single off the CD, A Song For Lorian was well received by radio and got an honourable mention in the 1997 International Unisong Contest. The second single, You’re My Addiction was released in June 2003 and received commercial country radio airplay all across Canada, the U.S.A. and Europe. This song garnered her a music award nomination for best female artist in the King Eagle Music Awards held in Nashville on September 27,2003. Kate has been seen and heard on various T.V. and radio shows and performs mostly around Southern Ontario and has appeared at such places as the C.N.E. in Toronto, The Songwriter’s Association of Canada’s Bluebird North in Toronto, Canada Day celebrations in London, the Canterbury Folk Festival in Ingersoll and The Stratford Festival of Canada.
