Katie Melua Chats to ilikemusic.com


"She's such a huge a influence, and the song that I wrote about her was the song through which I met Mike Batt. She really has inspired this first album of mine.

As well as Eva Cassidy, artists currently lodged in Katie's music player include, "Bobby Gentry, Chat Johnson, Damien Rice, Cat Stephens, Nick Drake, and Tom Waits."

The composer and producer Mike Batt paid a visit to the school looking for musicians to form a jazz band. At the last minute Katie decided to perform 'Faraway Voice' and Mike realised that he had found someone very special: "artists like Katie don't come along very often, she is a true original". Katie signed to Batt's record label Dramatico but stayed at the Brits to complete her studies - she graduated with distinction in July 2003.

Katie and Mike teamed up in the studio where Mike's wealth of experience and proven song-writing ability worked brilliantly with Katie's fresh approach, unique view of life and exceptional voice. The resulting album housed original songs by both Katie and Mike as well as some carefully selected covers.
