Stream/download/purchase: Smithsonian Folkways: https://folkways.si.edu/kaia-kater/grenades Bandcamp: https://kaiakater.bandcamp.com/album/grenades A creative force in her own right, Kaia Kater rises to bold new heights of imagination and creative expression on her third album 'Grenades.' With abundant poise and poetry, Kater composes an odyssey about personal identity, memory, and discovery in the wake of her father’s journey as a young political refugee. She draws upon her diverse musical influences in Quebec, the Caribbean, and Appalachia, and her bicultural experience as a second-generation Grenadian-Canadian, to envision a new path for herself and her songs.
