Kate Campbell

Kate Campbell Biography

Jamae Kathryn "Kate" Campbell (born October 31, 1961 in New Orleans, Louisiana) is an American folk singer/songwriter.

Kate's songwriting is strongly influenced by her southern roots and authors in the literary world, as on her most recent album, Live at the Library. John Prine, Nanci Griffith, Emmylou Harris, Rodney Crowell, Guy Clark, and Mac McAnally have provided guest vocals on her albums.

In addition to her Americana/Folk flavored albums, her catalog includes the all-acoustic Sing Me Out; Twang on a Wire, which features covers of songs made famous by female country artists of the 1960s and '70s; the piano-based 1000 Pound Machine; and two gospel CDs (Wandering Strange and For the Living of These Days) recorded at FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals with Spooner Oldham on keyboards. Her producers over the years include Johnny Pierce, Walt Aldridge, and Will Kimbrough.

Campbell sometimes performs with Pierce Pettis and Tom Kimmel as the New Agrarians.
