If someone extracted the essence of the film The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood and produced a CD, it might come out resembling Kathryn Mostow’s debut disc. The honey-voiced singer celebrates friendship on “Moving Day,” a unique bond shared by women of all ages on “Circle,” and how a woman down on her luck is transformed to a person of love and beauty on “Tina’s Song.” The songs are mostly acoustic, with added bits of percussion and piano. The young Seattle-based artist writes with wisdom beyond her years, taking us on a journey through a set of warm folk expressions.

The Victory Review
August 2002
By Bill Fisher
Possessed of a wonderfully pure set of vocal pipes, Kathryn doesn’t belt her songs out or try to impress with her native abilities. Instead, she simply gives out everything she is through her voice, and most listeners inevitably come rapidly to the belief that she is singing directly to them. Gratitude is excellent; it grows on you like the view outside a cabin by a lake in the woods where you find more beauty each time you look. With his impeccable ear, David Lange chose to minimize the reverb on Kathryn’s voice, putting as little distance between her and the listener as possible, and Kathryn called upon a group of superb local craftsmen to fill out her music—Richard Middleton, Dan White, Joel Litwin, Larry Murante and Lange himself, among others. This is music, simple and pure, that blesses you deeply, ineffably and satisfyingly every time you play it.

"I strongly recommend “Gratitude.” It's one of those rare CDs, that out of 11 cuts, I marked 4 as best favorites, and 6 as also to receive airplay. Ask for it, and move it to the top of the “to-be-listened-to” pile!"
—Clytia Fuller, “Heaven’s Bar and Grill”, KZSC 88.1 FM, UC Santa Cruz

Quotes about Kathryn

"...Kathryn Mostow, a Seattle singer-songwriter with a voice of honey and an easy laugh that quickly warms up audiences…"
— Seattle Post-Intelligencer

"The special thing about Kathryn’s music is that it is so real. There is a consistency between the lyrics that she sings, and the personal philosophy that she projects when she speaks. It all 'fits'. She maintains a lot of credibility with her audience, because her music is so sincere and her stage presence reflects that same honesty and vulnerability."
—Norm Johnson, President, Island Music Guild, Bainbridge Island, WA

"Hear her; try not to fall in love with her — but when she walks away with your eternal devotion, don't say I didn't warn you."
— Victory Music Review

"Kathryn's performances are really a conversation with her audience through music and charm -- such is her easy, unpretentious manner. She draws them into her world and never lets them down. She packs our venue, too, and that's music to my ears."
— Les, Owner, Bazaar Café, San Francisco, CA

"Kathryn…caught the Yakima Folklife crowd's attention with the combination of her authentic, honest vocals and a strong feminine presence. The power of the verse and simple rhythmic chords in her music pulled me in like a moth to a candle… don't miss her next time she plays."
— Alan Knight, Central Washington Entertainment News

"Kathryn sings with passion, her face a single joyous booming smile...It inoculates one after another with a sense of happy contentedness; this is a rare thing in such a season of fractious political storm. The epidemic is spread all around. This is the reflection of her power, her person, her music."
— John Sincock, host, "Lunch with Folks", KBCS FM Radio

"Kathryn is a rare whole-body/whole-being singer. Possessed of a wonderfully pure set of vocal pipes, she doesn't belt her songs out or try to impress with her native abilities. Instead, she simply gives out everything she is through her voice, and most listeners inevitably come rapidly to the belief that she is singing directly to them."
— Bill Fisher

"There are a lot of fine singer/songwriters in the world today, but Kathryn Mostow is one of the few who really gives me hope that everything's going to turn out fine in the end. Her gorgeous music is full of affection for the quirks of human nature and a joyous hymn to the possibility for good in the world."
—Eric O'del, Music Ministry Director, Seattle Center for Spiritual Living
