Kat Edmonson will tell you that, “A lot of the time we don’t need permission to do great things.” 

Kat Edmonson will say, “There are certain things we know about ourselves and we get in our own way assuming that there’s some gate we have to go through to be recognized to then finally say I’m allowed to do this now.”

Kat Edmonson will tell you that “There’s a quiet power in merely having a dream.”

Kat Edmonson knows of what she speaks. She is a dreamer, a romantic who knew she was destined to be a singer, songwriter and actress long before she knew how she would do any of it.

Her new record Dreamers Do explores concepts around dreaming, “all of the wonderful things and the fearful things, the things that keep us awake in the middle of the night.”

Here we talk about her journey out of the Lone Star State and into the Big Apple, her love of old well-made things, why “a tree is not scheming”, enjoying the moment, working with Woody Allen, loving “the limitations in a room”, acting vs singing, her new record, and not asking permission.
