From the woman whose heartfelt performance won first place in her semi-final and placed top ten at the 2019 Eurovision Grand Final with her hit song ‘Zero Gravity’, Kate’s masterful songwriting and ethereal voice will transcend HOTA’s stage. Appearing with collaborator, Keir Nuttall – fresh from their success writing the music and lyrics for Muriel’s Wedding The Musical – Australian music’s brightest star will perform brand new versions of her most beloved material, including hits such as ‘The Last Day on Earth’, ‘Caught in the Crowd’ and ‘O, Vertigo!’, plus a sneak preview of her brand new songs.
