Emerging from Nashville, Kat Dobay is not your typical solo singer-songwriter. A talented guitarist and overall creative, she boasts past militancy in eclectic jazz-funk band Vanilla Milk Sasquatch, an experience that has likely influenced her for the better. In fact, her solo effort is all but conventional. Balancing sleazy, emotional indie pop and punk-flavoured guitar tones, Dobay is slowly showcasing herself as a nuanced artistic soul, deserving of a top spot in the industry.
Kat’s latest single, ‘something like i’m sorry’ shuffles the cards a fair bit, leaving elegant distortion behind in favour of acoustic and intimate tones. Built as a poignant and romantic anthem, the record seeks to highlight the complex nature of relationships’ dynamics, especially the difficulty of forgiving’s each other flaws. On a bed of charismatic guitar arpeggios, Dobay delivers evocative and wholesome vocals, the best pairing for such meaningful lyricism.
