CALLmeKAT

Under the name CALLmeKAT Danish native Katrine Ottosen creates alt-pop with playful ease and a curiosity for the darker corners of the pop music spectrum. Known for her psychedelic approach and captivating live performances, her refreshing take on contemporary pop combines a woody earthiness and a soaring curiosity that leaves a lasting impression. Mouth Of Time (2016): "The title track, which we premiered last month, is all earth and soul, dusty finger snaps and Ottosen’s impassioned voice leading the way. Elsehwere, tambourines quiver (“Play with Fire”), and bluesy organs rise and fall, hum and hiss, in places synthesizers might have otherwise been (“Distant Night”)." - Consequence of Sound (US) "Since 2010 she has been collaborating with Joe Magistro and with 'Mouth Of Time' the couple has gotten hold of a recipe that holds both sensitivity and momentum. (…) Basically CALLmeKAT seems to have found a fine balance between the slow and the faster, between the introvert and the expressive." - Politiken (DK) "Katrine Ottosen's vocals color the music with equal parts laziness and seductive charm. The songs are trembling with immediacy and sing-along-choruses" - Gaffa (DK) " Her sweet, crisp voice is in a class of its own. The next best thing is that I just want to hear more, more, more of her slightly melancholic songs" - Alt For Damerne (DK) "Her dreamy and dancing-friendly indie pop is highly addictive" - Eurowoman (DK) “ Evocative patterns of sound that blend folky harmonies, pop ideas and melancholic, streamlined, off-kilter electronic textures to great effect.” - The Irish Times (20 best acts of SXSW 2016-list) "If nature is an integral part of her lyrics in "Mouth of Time", the imaginary landscape is reminiscent of a deserted and fantastic planet. This clip is arty to perfection and one looks with attention and pleasure." - Fille à la Modz (France) “The result is a collection of songs subtly dark in tone and veering more into more traditional rock sonics.” - My Old Kentucky Blog (US) Hidden Waters (2015): “Channeling Joni Mitchell + Francoise Hardy, CallmeKat releases her new single “Hidden Waters”. Amidst the layers of psychedelic alt-pop is a lush soundscape that has just enough nostalgia for an irresistible aural experience.” - Georgie Magazine “Sounds as if it’s borrowed from a Yes, Pink Floyd or early Genesis album. The stumping blues and happier spirit on ‘Rolling’ sounds like a Black Keys record made by the hedonistic Swede Miss Li, whilst also potentially attracting a new whisky-drenched audience.” - We Plug Good Music “A future-retro feel, with 60s-handclap pop brushing up against contemporary electronic touches” - Bullett Magazine “A Danish art-pop gal we swear you’ll have a hard time shaking.” - Baeble “Alternative fuzz pop with a love for good old-fashioned Casio keyboards and gentle melodies are their weapon to get rid of any bad mood or other obstacles.” - Nothing But Hope And Passion “Her winsome song stylings have all the cool Euro Melancholia of a Carla Bruni, yes with sort the raw, soul-bearing that might recall Joni Mitchell” - Blackbook Magazine CALLmeKAT has toured all over the world as solo headliner as well as opening for notable artists such as Sebastien Tellier, Au Revoir Simone, Okkervil River, The Dø and Nouvelle Vague, amongst others. She has played festivals such as SXSW, NXNE, Mama Festival, Spot festival and many more. • naturally psychedelic •
