16,
2010 - Once again, ROCKWIRED has found itself under the spell of a
genre film icon who just so hapens to have some songwriting chops and a
vocal delivery that can send chills down your spine. The first
performer of this caliber to impress us with her musical range was
sci-fi icon JANE BADLER of V-fame. Now LE KAT (better known as KAT
LESTER and her portrayal of the 'LADY IN LAVENDER' from the 1978 horror
film classic PHANTASM), is ready to stun audiences and listeners with
her album 'BOUDOIR ROUGE' - a slinky, sexy musical experience four
years in the making. "Paris
in the 1930's" may be the reference point visually and
musically but LE KAT's songwriting gives the vintage sound an all too
contemporary sensibility with songs such as 'TALK TO ME' and
the haunting and surprisingly political 'RIVER'. As if seeking to make
the modern day sexual politics of the album clear, LE KAT takes such
girls night out anthems as EURYTHMICS' 'I NEED A MAN ',MADONNA's 'HANKY
PANKY' and ESTHERO's 'WIKKID LIL' GRRRLS' and turns them into slinky,
speakeasy numbers that sound as if they could've been
the ditties that your grandparents partied to. LE
KAT - 'WiKKiD
LiL' GRRRLS'

ABOUT THE HOST: BRIAN
LUSH holds a BA in Creative Writing from the UNIVERSITY OF
NEW MEXICO. He established ROCKWIRED on New Years of 2004 and hasn’t
looked back
since.
From January 2005 to March 2009, LUSH was the host of the weekly
internet radio
show ROCKWIRED LIVE. He produced the program for the AMERICAN RADIO
NETWORK. As
the editor-in-chief for ROCKWiRED MAGAZiNE, LUSH is hands-on when it
comes to
interviewing and building a lasting rapport with the artists that come
ROCKWiRED’s
way. As a youngster, BRIAN LUSH had no idea what kind of seed was being
planted
by reading magazines such as HIT PARADE, HIGH TIMES, SPIN, REQUEST
(remember
that one?) and even ROLLING STONE (but to a significantly lesser
degree).
“Those were the days before the internet and being a rock journalist
looked
like the coolest job imaginable.” says LUSH “But reading these
magazines had me
imagining that one day I’d be the artist giving all of the clever
answers to
some poor guy with a tape recorder. Well, life has a way of surprising
you.
Now, I’m the poor guy with the tape recorder and asking all of the
questions.”
