Maddison Kate Shares Tender Debut EP 'What I'd Say To You'

On Friday, August 8, Meanjin-based indie-folk artist Maddison Kate releases her emotionally dense debut EP, 'What I'd Say To You'.

ওইথ 4 সওনগস থঅত কঅপতউরএ মঅদদইসওন কঅতএ পওএতইক গানের কথা, ফওলক মএলওদইএস, অনদ এঅরথয তওনএস, 'ওহঅত ই'দ সঅয তও যওউ' ইস অ মওসঐক গলঅসস ওইনদওও তও হএর সওউল, ওইথ এঅচ সওনগ শওওইনগ হএর এক্সপএরইএনকএস ইন অ দইফফএরএনত শঅদএ. এঅচ তরঅকক গইভএস ভওইকএ তও থএ থইনগস লএফত উনসঐদ — ফরওম ফইএরয গঊদবযএস অনদ সলঈপলএসস নইঘতস, তও থএ কউইএত ওওরক অফ অককএপতইনগ যওউরসএলফ.

The EP opens with 'A Truth': thumping drums and weaving vocals guide the listener through the minefield of emotions that arise after a breakup. With almost orchestral arrangement of mandolin, piano, drums, and sweeping violin, this song conducts emotions to their peaks and lows as the song screams out everything Maddison Kate wishes she'd said to the one who left.

Following that is 'More to Me', a tune full of introspection and longing. Through complex guitar, melodic violin, and angelic vocals, this song manages to gently explore the overwhelming feelings that stem from being better off without someone, and hoping for them to change to spur a reunion.

It melts into the next song, 'Alive', a breathtakingly raw song that reflects on the feelings that bubble up when someone has a broken heart without something to pin it on. Through its stripped back vocals and guitar that builds to a crashing crescendo, it captures how those dark thoughts can snowball when someone's alone.

The final song on the EP brings a glowing sense of hope to it. 'Flowered Heart' is a reminder that growth isn't linear made up of ballroom-ready violin, 12-string guitar, and blooming piano that lends a romantic air to it. Maddison Kate's vocals mingle throughout, perfectly capturing the feelings that come with healing.

Maddison Kate's debut EP 'What I'd Say To You' is a beautiful introduction to contemplative and honest storytelling and complex melodies that she has to offer, and it's ready to be shared with the world on Friday, August 8.

She launches the EP at Brisbane's Junk Bar on Sunday, August 17 alongside special guests Josie Eather and Neish.
