The New Album, "Born To Love You" is available at the festival this weekend!

While performing in Boulder, Colorado last Saturday and Sunday, Kayte sold her first autographed and numbered copies of her new release. In this beautiful outdoor setting, a large turnout of people came to Kayte's booth --the largest in almost a decade -- chasing after this CD, which contains the songs "Smaller", "Everybody Needs A River", and the title track, "Born To Love You". They went home, played it, and came back the next day and bought more!

The special, pre-release versions of "Born To Love You" are available NOW ONLY directly through Kayte or by mail order DIRECTLY from Silver Hill Records (click on their logo on this page or go to www.silverhillrecords.com to contact them). In a month, the first mass produced CD's will be sent to sites such as CDBaby for distribution, and in that time the songs will also be making their way into the playlists of such download sites as itunes.

Those who pre-ordered CD's back in the spring should be receiving their CD's (with very low numbers including the number #1) shortly as they were mailed this week. These collector's versions of the Born To Love You will be sold until the formal record release which is now looking like mid-August.

Kayte's Recording Studio Damaged In The Nashville Flood

Kayte was in the middle of mixing her new record when a historic flood destroyed many homes and landmarks including the Opryland Hotel. Gratefully, the album data was backed up and kept in a second location. Most of the hardest hit were near downtown, but as 20 inches of rain fell in two days, even homes "above the flood plain" were flooded. As a result, Kayte has not been able to complete any projects for the past few weeks. The studio is now up and running again after replacing much of her brand new computer and accessories.

On January 17, 1994, Kayte's residence and studio was similarly damaged during the Northridge Quake. "What I learned then is to keep your gas tanks full and stockpile bottled water and canned food. That experience taught me about disaster preparedness, and it also showed me that the things in your life can easily be replaced. As of date, amazingly the death toll is in the 30's. Some of the footage on TV absolutely brought me to tears, especially the father who lost his life trying to save one of his children. There's the REAL damage. I've only lost things and a couple of weeks of my life. I'm grateful to be safe and back in business."

The new single "Comin' Up For Air" is about to be released!

Tonight Kayte will be a guest on the NPR program "String Theory" hosted by John Maycomber. She will be introducing a few of her new songs including the popular "Comin' Up For Air" which she has performed live since last summer.

This new album, titled "Born To Love You" will contain eleven songs written by Kayte, Jim, and some of the finest hit writers here in Nashville.
