An absolutely brilliant British art rock and progressive-pop singer/songwriter/pianist. She was initially known for her 1978 debut single "Wuthering Heights," which hit #1 in the UK charts when she was only 19. As the years have gone by, she has released ten studio albums which all contain fantastic songwriting and her trademark dramatic soprano vocals. Seriously, she can belt, play and arrange like no other. She's also absolutely gorgeous, and comes from a highly intelligent and artistic family. 1982's "The Dreaming" and 1985's "Hounds of Love" are her most well-known masterpieces, but 2005's "Aerial" is just as extraordinary. If you're a new listener, check out her songs "Running Up That Hill" and "Army Dreamers" to get a sense of her idiosyncratic musical style. Don't worry if her unique vocal style doesn't appeal to you at first, it takes some warming up to for many new listeners! It should be noted that Bush was also a child prodigy, who wrote approximately 200 songs before she released her debut album. Pink Floyd's legendary David Gilmour gave Bush's career the kickstart it needed, helping to produce a 3-track demo when she was just 16. Bush has been known as an influence and inspiration to many alternative acts since the mid-80s, and her influence is only growing greater by the year. Kate Bush is a true musical genius, who deserves all the acclaim she gets and more.
