We were first introduced to the spellbinding and beautifully mysterious music of New York City based singer-songwriter and pianist Kait Warner back in May of 2023 with the release of her breathtaking debut single “Over Again” as we said in our original review “Warner carefully weaved images and tones of darkness and magnificently made them shine”.

Now we have been given a musical gift of epic proportion , as Kait Warner delivers her stunning debut album “Rodeo Clown”

You can listen to “Rodeo Clown“ on Spotify Here and on Apple Music Here

On “Rodeo Clown” Kait Warner artfully and authentically examines both the brightness and darkness within the human condition.

The opening track, “Future” has a county/americana soul mixed with a indie pop heart.Warner, effortlessly is able to take many different tones and sounds and create musical works of art. (This a common theme throughout “Rodeo Clown”

On the album’s title track “Rodeo Clown” Kait Warner shows hints of musical brilliance. “Rodeo Clown “ is the kind of song that you remember and it never really fades, always staying with you .

Rodeo Clown is the emotional centerpiece of the album. Here, with almost a whimsical flair, Kait expresses the destabilizing feelings of the album’s core topic of deep meaningful friendships suddenly and dramatically ending. “There also definitely a crush element to this song as well. It’s about making yourself into a fool for the person you’ve fallen for, and the deliciously agonizing back and forth between two people who want each other but whose egos get in the way,” Kait reveals

We love the mysterious feel of “Good Behavior “ In our original review of “Good Behavior we commented “Good Behavior “ has a realness and authenticity that you just can’t fake . Kait Warner is a skilled songwriter who creates songs from the heart .Kait not only wrote “Good Behavior “, she also arranged the song as well”.

One of our favorite songs on the record is the beautifully written “23” We love everything about this song . Kait gives a stunning vocal performance that is otherworldly “23” has all the elements that make Kait Warner stand out in a musical landscape that is at times mundane.

Rodeo Clown was recorded at Business District Recording in Johnson City, New York, a space bursting at the seams with a wild assortment of vintage gear and musical instrument curiosities—many of which were used during the sessions. Joining Kait in the studio is producer Hunter Davidsohn (Porches, Frankie Cosmos, Sheer Mag, and Bethlehem Steel), percussionist and co–arranger Spencer McKee, bassist and brass instrumentalist Daniel Thomas, violinist Raina Arnett, guitarist Ryan Sheehan, and drummer Elli Caterisano.
