With the list of Independent stars growing on the W.O.A Records roster the company’s star list now grows even larger with the signing of Canada’s upcoming country star Kate Ashby-Craft, Canada’s hottest country offering.
“Country music is my personal favourite kind of music that I love listening to and when I heard Kate’s music I was hooked from the first song onwards” says Oliver Sean, President/ Founder, W.O.A International, “she has already been nominated for the ‘Best Microphone Award’ (Best Singer) at the King Eagle Music Awards held in Nashville (home of country music) and we think her music will be well received by the surprising number of country fans growing Internationally and W.O.A International is fully geared to take her music to the masses”.
Originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Kate Ashby-Craft started off as a classical voice and theatre major in University but wanting to experience other kinds of music Kate went on the road performing everything from country, rock to folk and jazz and blues touring Canada and the U.S.A. Her albums have been well received on various commercial radio stations in the US and Canada and her vast experience in the field of music has always brought recognition and accolade to her compositions and songs.
“My latest CD ‘Love Is All There Is’ was a concept album and Lyrically all twelve songs explored a different dimension of love. Musically this album ventured into Jazz/Pop with a Latin/AC/Folk flavour” says Kate, “This album received rave reviews and has charted on several college radio charts. In October 2007 this CD was nominated for 4 Music Awards in the Toronto Exclusive Magazine Awards for all of Canada.”
