Born and raised during the legendary Motown years in Detroit, Kathy Kosins’ soulful voice, distinctive phrasing, and deep-rooted passion for stories and characters has captivated audiences since she first came to prominence in the late 1980s as a background singer for Don Was and Was/Not Was. In 1996, Kosins collaborated with both L.A. and New York City-based writers to compose a collection of jazz tunes, with the intent of selling them to already recognized artists. However, Michigan-based indie label Schoolkids Records discovered this repertoire, and urged her to record and release the material under own name. It was then that Kosins’ prolific jazz career began with the release of her debut album “All In A Dreams Work.” 

ASCAP award-winning vocalist and Detroit native Kathy Kosins – who’s won over critics and fans worldwide with her signature smoky voice and eclectic musical palette that expand on the rich legacies of jazz and soul – makes her debut Catalina Bar & Grill in Hollywood, California on Thursday, June 8 at 8:30PM. Kosins will preview material from her upcoming album “Uncovered Soul,” on which she takes listeners on a soul-drenched musical journey through the sonic landscape of the 1960s and 1970s in her hometown of Detroit – an era that continues to fascinate a worldwide audience. Produced by Kamau Kenyatta, the Grammy-winning producer behind Gregory Porter’s last two albums, “Uncovered Soul” features little-known masterpieces by Curtis Mayfield, The Neville Brothers, and Bill Withers, among others, alongside original songs written by Kosins and collaborators.
