  • Bio

    Kate St-Pierre is most recognized for her versatility, be it in her voice or her character work. Vocally she is renowned for her ethnic qualities, her throaty grunge-like belt into a pure operatic tone and her passionate phrasing. Kate has recorded works for multiple film scores and soundtracks. Recent releases include the soundtrack by Benoit Jutras (Cirque du Soleil, “Journey of Man”) for the new Franco Dragone (Cirque du Soleil, Celine’s “New Day”) show, "Le Rêve" at the Wynn hotel; featured vocal soloist for the Middle Eastern and World Music group Solace 2006 release "Nagari" and 2005 release "Balance"; guest soloist on Jon Anderson's (Yes) highly anticipated album project, "In Elven Lands." Kate's voice has also been used for various film and television projects and can also be heard on the soundtrack for acts of many former Cirque du Soleil artists including the Steben Twins. Her unique, versatile and supple voice accents the artist’s already dynamic performance. Kate's voice was also featured on the 2004 Drama Desk Award Nominated Music for the theatrical show, "Ramayana 2K3." Her striking stage presence, perhaps due to her years as a professional stage actress, heightens any live performance. Ms. St-Pierre has worked with many projects. Prominent groups are: Shamans Dream World Groove Ensemble and Zen Dancing, an eclectic group of world class musicians from diverse musical backgrounds; Cat on the Roof, violin, dijeridoo, percussion, and voice; Healer, heavy/industrial/tribal band with White Zombie drummer Ivan De Prune and the Los Angeles Opera as Assist. Director and Character / Singer for the 2004 - 2005 Outreach Program. Kate has also taught /coached character development to many professional actors, gymnasts, aerialists and dancers. While at “Le Rêve” Kate developed a program to encourage the new arriving artists to incorporate their vocal expression with their aerial, gymnastic and dance performance. Kate studied North Indian voice with Lakshmi Shankar, Opera Studies with Dr. Kevin St. Clair, USC and Joselyn Fleury, Concordia University, Montreal. Opera, Balkan, Tuvan and Tibetan Throat Chanting with Dennis Parnel. Acting and Improvisation Studies with Larry Pellegrini (Artificial Intelligence) and Jay Legget (I.O. and In Living Color). After singing in Cirque Du Soleil's,“Ka” at the MGM in Las Vegas Kate performed with her band KAVANAH at the Coachella Music Festival, and then went on to tour Europe with the band SOLACE. Kate recently recorded for legendary film trailer composer Thomas J. Bergersen and again worked with Benoit Jutras for his 6 Flags project. .. ....
