Katie Kimย – “Body Break”
A Spill Exclusive Canadian Musicย Premiere
Katie Kim is the pseudonym of Waterford, Ireland singer Katie Sullivan, who performs slowcore, ethereal, ambient folk/pop. Katie has been putting the finishing touches to her third full length album entitled Salt and is excited to announce a release date of November 11th.
Salt was recorded in a self-built recording and artist space in Dublin called Guerrilla Studios which has become an integral part of the Independent Irish music scene. Guerrilla has hosted live performance video collective the Practice Tapes as well as being the studio where releases by The Jimmy Cake, Hilary Woods and much more have been recorded.
Salt is a departure from Katie’s previous albums and delves further into the drone side of previous releases with textured production added by producer John โSpudโ Murphy, who is central to the album’s sonic feel.
