Couch Riffs Episode 79 : Kathy Moore of Kathy Moore Super Power Trio
This episode features guest Kathy Moore, one of the most in-demand and active guitarists in all of Seattle. We met a handful of years ago and it is always an absolute joy to see her perform and usually we can chat briefly when we cross paths but this was a great conversation for getting to know her story. Studied in jazz and orchestral band, Kathy didn't start playing guitar until she was 21 years old! She is an absolute ripper and can cover so many styles on the guitar AS WELL AS THE KEYS! Seriously, one of my regrets of leaving Seattle is that I left without ever getting to play and perform with Kathy. Go check out The Kathy Moore Super Power Trio! LISTEN HERE |
Kathy Moore Answers 20 Questions: Expect an Epic Guitar Solo at the End!
The first time I saw Kathy Moore perform was with Seattle's BRAD -- a side project of Stone Gossard's with Shawn Smith and Regan Hagar. I was stunned to see a female on stage with them and in awe of her demeanor -- in Seattle you expect to see more personality than actual great guitar skills or singing capability when it comes to females, at least in my experience. This chick had it all with great original style.
REVIEW: BAD DAY IS COMING BY KATHY MOORE SUPER POWER TRIO BY ROCKERA MAGAZINE
The song is talking about the destruction caused by the latest global warming issues and climate change deadly effects that is why the song is not a happy one but it is a song of weeping and mourning! Starts with horrific ambient sounds followed by darkened guitar sounds (like the intro of Metallica's One) then mourning-pitched singing. The performance of vocals is taking the sound of the aching Earth! There is various guitar sounds backed by amusing Basslines. In my opinion, the main hero of the song is the performance of the vocals. Moore uses a fusion of clean high pitches with an expressive sense of sorrow and darkness.

Five to Discover: Acts You Need To Know | AMERICAN SONGWRITER
There’s a restrained elegance to the opening of this song composed by the new, upper-cutting rock band. “Someday We’ll Fly” was written to remember the fallen Seattle musician, Shawn Smith, who was both close to the band’s front woman, Kathy Moore, and to, seemingly, every other important musician in Seattle since The Sonics. To bring this memorial to a peak, Moore bucks the elegance about 4-minutes in for Prince-like soloing prowess. Get your tissues ready.

Moore can sing a beautiful, meaningful ballad alongside raspy, intimidating rock tunes and musically dangerous experimentation pieces. This album has a certain timelessness. Moore, Stankevich and Martini, while known for their session and gig work, establish themselves here as the kind of rock and roll band that will push the art forward. Given how so many of the industry’s most illustrious players have either shown signs of retirement or have, sadly, passed on, what the world needs is good music that dares to take the listener to those places unknown without committing to the sacrifice of pop sensibility. These women step up to the creative challenge with boldness and heart.
