Preview story from AnnArbor.com
The Michigan roots music of Detroit native Kitty Donohoe, it's been said, has a luminous yet earthy sound. Kitty has a three-octave range and a haunting stage presence that have consistently been gaining her new fans since the late 1980s.

Her latest album, "Northern Border," features Canadian sounds and has earned raves: Sing Out! calls her "one of the rare singer-songwriters to sensuously weave words and melody into a strong and mesmerizing fabric. Her melodies, redolent with Celtic flavors, wrap themselves around her flowers of words."

Well known to Michigan audiences, Kitty recently appeared at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington and opened for Don McLean at the legendary Birchmere club in Alexandria. She performed "There Are No Words," written on the afternoon of September 11, 2001, at the dedication of the Pentagon's 9/11 memorial.
