Kerry born, Dublin based singer songwriter Kate Dineen recently released her latest single, ‘Sorry‘. A beautiful lilting melody accompanies Kate’s haunting vocals, evocative of heartbreak and moving on – it’s a nostalgic, vulnerable message to a past lover.
You’ve ruled my mind, for too long a time
It’s not my way, to make you stay,
Here with me.
Kate was surrounded by music from a young age and would often sit in the back seat of her family’s car and read her father’s CD insert sleeves front to back so that she could memorize the lyrics. At age 14 Kate started learning guitar, learning her favourite songs, which she cites as a freeing experience. Then, at 16, as a shy teenager, she decided to challenge herself and sign up for vocal lessons. Kate immediately felt connected to the voice as an instrument that she could control.
