“I grew up listening to my parents’ record collections—we had a finicky old record player that would make all sorts of terrible scratchy noises unless you placed the needle on the record at just exactly the right time.”
“I was fortunate to have parents whose musical tastes spanned everything from Stravinsky to the Beatles to Jethro Tull and the Grateful Dead. I remember the first time I heard “Cinnamon Girl” on my mom’s copy of the Neil Young & Crazy Horse album.
My seven-year-old mind was blown open and I couldn’t help but dance with wild abandon all around the living room. I will always smile at the familiar crackle of a needle making its first contact with vinyl.”

We have the pleasure of premiering Kate Copeland’s new video for “Far Away Place.” The boho-chic themed video is the perfect setting for the songstress to unveil her bittersweet musical tapestry which is woven together by her heartfelt delivery of the lovelorn lyrics. But just when you think you have a finger on her sound, Copeland shifts gears with unexpected instrumental dynamics that make it apparent just how promising her musical vision is.
By taking these artistic risks, she displays a supreme confidence in herself and her songwriting, making her a definite “one to watch.”
