KAATWALK – “CHASING HIGHS”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE MUSIC PREMIERE
Kaatwalk, a Twin Cities based singer-songwriter, infuses her music with a quiet honesty. Inspired by storytellers like Brandi Carlile, Phoebe Bridgers, and Joni Mitchell, Kaatwalk’s music defies genre boundaries and embraces lived experiences. Her musical style is a blend of heartfelt lyrics and a stripped-down, authentic sound. Her songwriting is personal and reflective, often drawn from the shared moments and emotional undercurrents of everyday life. She has released multiple songs including: “Monster” in 2022, “Rum in Your Coffee” in 2022, “Peace of Mind,” a collaboration with the Fargo-based band, Walking Phoenix released in 2023, and “Falling on Deaf Ears” a collaboration with local artist, Dirty Hymns. Kaatwalk’s recent releases are, “Stop the Rain” 2025, “Can’t be Alone” 2026, “Open your Eyes”2026, and a 4 song EP called A Week in June. She is set to release her debut album, Build, on November 6th.
You can also find Kaatwalk vocals on many songs of the album Northern Soul, by Twin Cities based band, The Holy North. The sophomore album was released October 3rd, 2025. Kaatwalk has been recording new music with respected Minnesota musicians such as Marvin Gohman, John Wright, Bob Delage, Phil Solem, Gil Navarro, Daryl Boudreaux, Noah Levy, Martial Besombes, Jeremy Harvey and many more. Additionally, she has been working with engineer John Wright at his studio in Shakopee. Outside of her solo work, she performs full-time as one half of the duo Marv and Kaat, and sings with the epic, powerhouse group, The Holy North. Collaboration and community are central to her creative process.
Kaatwalk believes that music isn’t about perfection; it’s about being present and connecting with others. She’s grateful for every opportunity to grow, connect, and share songs that feel authentic.
ARTIST QUOTE
“I wrote Chasing Highs after another night where I was out of control. It was the moment I wrote this song, I recognized a pattern. I kept looking for any kind of high to escape my lows and my present situation. I was chasing that next good feeling and completely losing myself in the process.”
