(September 30, 2025) Welsh-born, Yorkshire-based soul\/jazz singer Kat Eaton<\/strong> has certainly paid her dues. By rubbing her elbows with acclaimed acts while touring with Mamas Gun, Marc Broussard and Gregory Porter, she\u2019s already put in the work with two albums \u2013 2021\u2019s Talk to Me<\/em> and\u00a0 2024\u2019s Honestly<\/em> \u2013 along with a round of singles. And her songwriting abilities have led to collaborations with names like Andy Platts (Mamas Gun, Young Gun Silver Fox) and Ruby Turner of Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra fame. Now the UK singer-songwriter is stepping forward with a captivating new single that\u2019s sure to please soul music lovers.<\/p>\n Coming out the gate is \u201cBreak Free,\u201d a sultry blues tune dipped in the healing waters of gospel. After showing off an unguarded vulnerability about life\u2019s tribulations while \u201cholding on to a piece of [her] heart,\u201d she makes her way through the groovy chorus using positive affirmations: \u201cI gotta break free\/I gotta believe that I know it\u2019s right for me<\/em>.\u201d It\u2019s smoky liberation soul dressed up in Dusty Springfield tapestry. And she rises to the occasion on the Nick Atkinson-produced track by breaking through the storm clouds like Bonnie Raitt. Blessed with a marvelous lower register, Kat\u2019s an earthy contralto with luxurious grit on the edges.<\/p>\n This is the first single from the anticipated third album, What Happens Now<\/em>, expected to drop in the Spring of next year.
