Kate Schutt is an incredible singer songwriter that is down to earth and passionate about sharing her experiences and life lessons through public speaking and song. Her Ted X talk "A Grief Casserole -- How to help your friends & family through loss" has been viewed over 36 thousand times and her story about supporting her mother through terminal cancer has inspired her passion and music as she shares. She is incredibly intelligent studying at Harvard university and Berklee College of music.
Kate Schutt is an award-winning songwriter, singer, guitarist, and producer whose voice NPR calls “glassily clear and glossily sweet.” Kate studied the influence of jazz on poetry at Harvard, and studied jazz guitar at Berklee College of Music. Working with legendary producer/arranger Rob Mounsey, Kate just finished recording her new album, Bright Nowhere. It maps the landscape of loss around her mother’s diagnosis and death from ovarian cancer.
Kate spent four years as her mom’s primary caregiver, along the way writing songs about life, loss, and (to use Christopher Hitchens’s potent phrase) “living dyingly.”
