Kate comes in with a bang on this EP with this upbeat Latin track featuring fiery Spanish guitar from Mexican guitarist Victorino Perez.
Eclectic London based artist Kate Thomas has recently made her EP “The Lion’s Raw” available as an instrumental only version. Kate steps aside in this new version allowing YOU to be part of the band.
“We have all been working so hard to survive this pandemic physically and mentally but amongst our struggles I have been blown away by everyone’s resilience and creativity. I am going to keep encouraging this creativity so I have decided to release an instrumental version of my EP “The Lion’s Raw” I have hung up my vocals on this occasion so that you guys can sing-a-long and play-a-long. So if fiery Latin guitarras, wild gypsy rhythms, smoky jazz ballads or acoustic folk arpeggiations are your bag then this is an EP to get creative with! And when I say creative I mean CREATIVE run wild and free!"
