Sophistication, elegance, grace–these elements are inherent to Kat Edmonson’s music. There’s also a cinematic quality to much of her work, and unsurprisingly, some of her first introductions to music came from classic films. This week on My KUTX, Edmonson returns to Austin and plays guest DJ, giving insight on her influences and her own songwriting. Catch My KUTX Saturday at 6 p.m. or listen anytime in the player below.
