Deep Waters is my 8th studio album of original songs. Released on 17th April 2024

I’ve made playable interactive liner notes mixing old family cine-film with commentary talking about why and how I wrote the album. Play now on the image above - and please share this link on social media if you like it. It is powered by Stornaway - the interactive storytelling platform I co-founded in 2020.

You can Order the album from my Bandcamp page.

Joining me and Naadia to create the arrangements are Dave Manington on bass and guitars, Sophie Alloway on drums and Keith Warmington on harmonica with lush strings by Clare Lindley and Brian Mullan. The album was mixed and mastered by Ant Whiting.

'Riveting' Album of the Week Mail on Sunday 4*

'Fresh, subtle and startling' Robin Denselow, Guardian 3*

'‘The damnedest thing I heard all week ... the a capella vocal virtuosity of Kate Dimbleby…Her stunning a capella album Songbirds ...accompanied by a UK tour of her acclaimed one woman show.. an artist at the top of her game.' Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music

'There's a cupful of The Roches in some of its quirkiness, a shot of The McGarrigles in some of the more tender moments, together with a teaspoonful of Laurie Anderson in the slightly challenging Happy.. Kate Dimbleby has carved out a niche for herself in the genre of layered vocal pyrotechnics...SONGBIRDS has every likelihood of taking you by surprise as it did I" Allan Wilkinson, Northern Sky Magazine

'Songbirds is that vocal-only album that suggests a rare and peerless talent…. striking, majestic voice that is, if anything, at its peak here. Never has she sounded more graceful and entrancing as she does on Songbirds…. It is testament to Kate Dimbleby that she is able, so far along in her career, to sound new and reborn…Songbirds is a wonderful collection everyone should have'. Sam Liddicott

“Life is painful, it is beauty, life is everything we see. Life does not bow down to duty, life will bring you no relief. And when both our lives are over, there’ll be no one left to know. How deeply I loved you so I’d better let you know. Yes I’d better let you know

“Life Is” by Kate Dimbleby (Songbirds, 2017)
