Easier Sung Than Said12.Kat Von D is a legend in her own right, a jack of all trades if there ever was one. A pastiche of shapeshifting analog synths, post-punk dreamscapes, gothic hues, and shy pop magnetism, these eleven songs echo the eternal will of the perennially brokenhearted to love until death. Capping off the process, Dan Haigh of Gunship handled mixing. They moved into a bungalow cottage on her property, lived together, and finished the record. Pharmacist (synth 1/ Cat Power, The Gossip), Sammi Doll (synth 2/ IAMX), Dave Parley (drums/ Prayers), and Brynn Route (contortionist). During 2014, she retreated to London to record the original mix of what would become her full-length debut album ‘Love Made Me Do It’ (KVD/Kartel Music Group) before cementing it with her band – Gregg Foreman AKA Mr. Following this experience, Kat continued to write on her own, sitting at the piano and summoning songs from raw emotion. In 2012, she began writing with GRAMMY® Award-nominated Linda Perry. She studied voice under Ken Tamplinsix days per week, strengthening her vocals.

It’s the ultimate 3am dance floor synthwave slow jam for an Anti-prom that never happened but all alternative teens have dreamed about since the ∘0s.
