Previously working under her real name of Colette Kavanag,h the singer, songwriter based in Kildare, Ireland began with a contemporary style of music writing songs inspired by the late great Karen Carpenter that was described as having a “tender, sweet voice that is warm and inviting” by Brian Harris of Indie Spoonful. Her heartfelt songs are of the most personal kind make her a truly endearing lyricist.
But with a change of name from Colette to Kolette the the soft C of contemporary becoming a capital K of kick-ass club vibes that is a catchy little number thats a 90’s Cascada pop sounding track that’s love with a beautiful beat.
