Kat’s Got The Cream is a podcast for music lovers and makers, featuring the crème de la crème of songwriters from across the globe with host, Kat Eaton.
Each episode features a different songwriter talking about their craft, their influences, their song-writing tips, and their experiences of working in the industry.
Kat gets into the nooks and crannies of each guest’s back catalogue. Together, guest and host, try to pin point exactly what it is that makes us love or hate a certain song.
