Kat moved to California in 2001 and joined a cover band, Good Natured Mortals, and added the guitar and singing to her repertoire. Kat's first full length album, Head of Revelations, came out in 2005 and is available on CD Baby and iTunes and just about everywhere else on the web. In 2006 her own band, Kat Downs, was featured on the local television show “San Francisco Sound” on Comcast.
