Biography

Kate Fenner's voice has been heralded "a lusty alternative Joni Mitchell" by the New York Times and "A National Treasure" by the CBC. Her works with legendary artist Joan Jonas have given that voice a permanent home in the Whitney Museum of Contemporary Art. Her last album Middle Voice came together gradually over a year, with the participation of many wonderful musicians and friends, including Bill Frisell, Jason Moran, Norah Jones and Hugh Christopher Brown. The title, "Middle Voice" comes from a grammatical term, wherein the subject of a sentence is both the actor and the acted-upon, both agent and patient; it is meant to reflect the middle part of life--its equivocations, its ambivalence, its modest epiphanies.
