Kat Wright, whose voice is both sultry and dynamic, delicate yet powerful; gritty but highly emotive and nuanced, has been described as a young Bonnie Raitt meets Amy Winehouse. Add to that voice enough stage presence to tame lions, and the combination of feline femininity proves immediately enchanting. Theres soul flowing in and out of her rock n roll with a serpentine seduction. Some of soul musics sweet, grand dames belt, shout, seethe, and succumb, while Wright sings gently like a heartaches apology. Its funky in spots and beautiful all over. And it hurts a little like it should.

Broca's Area is a four piece future soul band based out of Hartford, Connecticut that is a unique blend of hip-hop, R&B, and soul music. Pushing the envelope of these styles towards jazz gives you the multi-dimensional, polyrhythmic band that is Broca's Area.
