Album Notes

Kate Sikora is the middle child in a middle class family from a blue-collar suburb in New Jersey. However, there is nothing middling or blue-collared about her music. Much of who she is and what she does is the result of having such a musical and artistic family. Her mother, a beauty in a wildly painted VW bug, caught her father's eye in the 70's. He set out to win her heart by sending her strange and colorful love letters while she was away at college. Like those letters, Kate's songs are like strange and colorful messages to the world. Whether she's comparing herself to a perpetually broken-hearted princess ("Wonderful Princess") or singing an ode to a drag queen ("Venus"), her music is universal and easy to relate to. "Grace in Rotation" has finally arrived after 6 years of writing, performing, dreaming, and working to pay for it! "Grace" has been Kate's mantra from her first breath and the years thus far encompass the "rotation" of experiences, changes, successes and disappointments that shape this music and this artist. It is the first of many musical ventures to come from this talented chanteuse!
