Kate Voss & the Hot Sauce

Date: Friday, February 14, 2025

Time: 7:00 p.m.

Location: Polson High School

Concert Details: “Voss’ voice is equal parts Billie Holiday and Teresa Brewer, light and silly when it needs
to be and tinged with an old soul’s wry wit. She’s a charmer. She casts an undeniable
spell on you...”
— THE VINYL ANACHRONIST

Performer Bio: Hailing from the Emerald City, Kate Voss got her start in the club scene in Seattle playing with a
variety of groups on piano. When her jazz studies were nearing an end, her musical interests
could not be pinned down to a single genre, her teacher assigned her the title of "dilettante"
Luckily for us all, that only inspired Kate to further explore other avenues for making music and
ultimately brought her to form Kate Voss & The Hot Sauce which encompasses all the genres
she loves. A true variety band, this act pulls from her varied background of jazz, blues, pop,
country, western-swing, oldies, Americana and rockabilly. As a full-time musician, Voss has
cultivated a stage presence that charms and delights folks and a voice that "Nails the
authenticity of the era" with tunes from Brenda Lee to Nancy Sinatra and Patsy Cline to Ray
Charles. Kate has been awarded "Vocalist of the Year" and "Ensemble of the Year" from Earshot
Magazine and after her move to Wisconsin in 2021, was nominated for several WAMI awards
including Female Vocalist of the year, Instrumentalist of the year, and Free Reed Player of the
Year. As leader of this band, Kate sings lead vocals, plays the Ukulele Bass, and occasionally
plays melodica while staying true to her one rule in this band: Kate says "We only play songs I
love.”
