Kaia Kater

Due to contract restrictions, this presentation will be available to view through January 17, 2023.

Kaia Kater is a Grenadian-Canadian singer-songwriter and tradition bearer. Her musical career began as a search to discover the roots of her identity and became a physical and emotional exploration of history, which ultimately led her to bold new heights of imagination and creative expression.

She released her first EP, Old Soul, in 2013 when she was just out of high school. Since then, she’s gone on to release three more albums: Sorrow Bound in 2015, Nine Pin in 2016, and Grenades in 2018. She’s received a Canadian Folk Music Award and a Stingray Rising Star Award for her music, which touches on both social issues as well as more personal narratives.

Kater has toured internationally, performing at venues such as The Kennedy Center, Hillside Festival, and London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush. In 2021, she took part in the Slaight Music Residency at the Canadian Film Center, released her single Parallels, and composed original music for the CBC/BET+ TV series The Porter.  She is currently working on a full-length album to be released in 2023.
