'Katya' - Album: 'Promo EP' - Genre: 'Rock' - Release Date: '2006' Our Rating: 9 out of 10 stars
Russian-born Katya strives for the throne of Rock Goddess on this three-track promo sampler, and I wouldn't be surprised if she's annointed a year from now. With guitars smoking and burning amps into volcanic ash, Katya creates her own heavy-metal thunder with a solid grip on melodic pop textures and bluesy fury. The opening cut, "Bitch & Moan," is an anthem for any struggling rock star. It may be misinterpreted a feminist diatribe, but it's actually a slamming statement of frustration delivered with crunchy, distorted riffs and a knockout lead vocal. What an exhilarating rocker it is. "Another rock star on TV/another notch against me," she spits bitterly, guitars blowing everything to smithereens. "JLY" is an instrumental featuring the hyperkinetic drum work of star guest Stephen Perkins of Jane's Addiction. Katya covers Janis Joplin's "Mercedes Benz," showing her magnificent range and own vocal punch.

Katya seems to have a single goal: To rattle your speakers until they tumble to the rug, leaving fire stains in its path. There aren’t enough female rockers these days, and I’m not including the punk wanna-be’s in that category. Katya is no punk. Although her music is fairly aggressive, and “Bitch & Moan” has enough Fetchin’ Bones -styled femme rage to attract mohawks in the crowd, it is pure rock & roll. If Katya belonged to any period of Women In Rock, I’d compare her to Heart at their most punchy (“Barracuda”) and Janis Joplin, whose “Mercedes Benz” Katya covers here. Katya can shout like the best of them, but the ferocious guitar playing on display here jettisons indie amateur hour for a meaty, two-fisted attack.

This review, as well as other great reviews, reached the legendary John Carruthers, of Carruthers Guitars in Venice, CA, who then provided her with a phenomenal endorsement contract of three custom-built guitars with her own custom logo. Later, KATYA performed on the tv show "Bank of Hollywood" and at the E World Music red carpet launch party. She was also featured on "America's Got Talent". Her single, “The Power of Rock and Roll,” (featuring Gonzo on drums of Armored Saint) has broken into international radio. KATYA is a featured artist in the 2009 edition of the bestselling Musicians Atlas Resource Book, and spotlighted on the “musiciansatlas.com” homepage. Planetary Group has distributed the compilation CD to more than 750 radio stations in the United States and Canada; this CD features KATYA's song, “The Power of Rock and Roll.”

 

KATYA rocked the Inkslinger's Ball at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. Additional great endorsements were provided by Egnater Amplifiers, Get'm Get'm Wear, TKL (Custom Cases), Venice Amplifiers (Custom Amps and Mods) and Coffin Case. Out of 300 performers, KATYA was chosen by Chris Douridas and Gemma Dempsey in Los Angeles for an internationally released compilation CD called “2623 Main Street.” Her song, “Bitch and Moan,” was aired on KLOS, and her video “Laying In My Bed” was placed on Mike Galaxy's compilation DVD, “Can't Dance Ver 3”, which was screened and distributed at the Sundance Film Festival.

 

KATYA’s clothing line, ROCK WEAR FOR DOGS (& humans too!), has hit stores. Connect with this amazing artist and experience her transforming and extraordinary music! Her roots are Russian and her music is revolutionary.

 

KATYA's music career started at the early age of 5, when her grandmother insisted on giving her classical piano and voice lessons. Nina Kent, who was born in Ossa, Russia was a trained classical pianist and singer.

 

At age six, KATYA's interests expanded to the guitar which led her to be a songwriter. The keys to the golden kingdom were granted, and KATYA's whole world became about music. Today she is an accomplished musician playing piano, keyboard, rhythm and lead guitar as well as being an incredible vocalist and a high-energy performer.
