Retailing Insight Magazine (New Age Retailer): Chants To Awaken
by Bill Binkelman
June/uly 2013
“On Kathy Zavada’s self-released Chants to Awaken, all the chants are sung in English and the instrumentation is closer to that associated with folk/folk-pop music (piano, synthesized drums and strings, acoustic guitar, bass, percussion, and cello). While some chants are overtly religious (“In the Light,” “Let Go, Let God”), others are more secular but still centered on love, peace, and acceptance. Zavada has a pure, lovely voice that reminds me of Mary Chapin Carpenter, a similarity underscored by the gentle, folk-like melodies and relatively low-key rhythms. “Take Me Home” builds from a slow start to become a multi-tracked vocal wonder, concluding with a beautiful cello passage.

Drunk With Wonder Reviews: One Incredible Life
by Steve Ryals
My dear friend Kathy Zavada has just released her latest album, One Incredible Life. I’ve been reviewing Kathy’s music for some 14 years now, all the way back to 1996’s In Love Divine. Kathy’s ability to weave music and lyrics never ceases to both amaze and delight. She tunes into the essence of the Spiritual Journey, which I believe is about walking through the shadow of illusion and coming Home to the perennial truth that Love (God/Goddess) is all there is. Kathy performs this feat with a seemingly endless fountain of creativity, her warm, sweet voice exquisitely matched by her delicious piano work.
Having told you a bit about Kathy’s talent as both a songwriter and a musician, I want to take a moment to share the kind of emotional impact Kathy’s music has for me. Her songs fly far past appellations such as “nice,” “sweet,” and so forth. Kathy’s warm and hugely loving heart can pierce the stoutest defenses we erect around our own, leaving us with softened hearts that can feel the tremendous tenderness with which Kathy addresses our deepest fears as well as our essentially innocent hearts. On “Song for my Father,” for example, which Kathy wrote when her own father passed, her pure love shines with such grace that my tears flow like a spring shower that leaves the air fresh and shimmering with promise. I could go on (and on) but I really just want to pique your interest so that you will buy her music. Buy it all!
As for the music; Kathy plays piano and synthesizer (organ and strings) as well as singing like an angel. Roman Morykit preforms acoustic and electric guitars, bass and synth cello. Jim Sitter handles drums. Actually, guitars have a more central role in One Incredible Life than in any of her previous albums, and some of the bass lines, including the inspiring “All Things are Possible.” Kathy also includes a chant version of “May all Beings be at Peace,” a favorite Buddhist prayer. Her best work to date (which is really saying something!), One Incredible Life is a celebration of the moment in all its infinite fullness. For fans of Kathy’s music as well as all those inspired by open hearts, One Incredible Life is a must have.
New Age Retailer: One Incredible Life
by Bill Binkelman
Vocalist and pianist/keyboardist Kathy Zavada’s latest album, One Incredible Life, presents the singer at her best with her expressive voice graced by solid instrumental accompaniment (guitar, bass, drums) across various genres (e.g., folk, blues, jump boogie, and occasional inflections of country). Zavada’s vocals compare quite favorably to Mary Chapin Carpenter, which is, of course, a huge compliment. The 10 tracks’ lyrics (included in the liner notes) are all uniformly affirming in tone, and sometimes overtly spiritual, such as on “Thank You God,” and “All Things Are Possible.” However, secular humanists can equally appreciate the love and care that went into making this fine recording, as well as the great music itself.

Return To Love
"This music is very positive and uplifting in it's message; you just feel better after listening to it," says Zavada. "I wanted to make a CD that reflects what really matters. The themes vary from love, to how we can create a better world, to an anthem to our Earth, to more personal experiences, like letting go instead of holding on and suffering...and returning to peace even when you feel like life can't get any harder."

I’m Right Here
I'm Right Here is an exquisitely beautiful, deep and intimate collection of 10 songs, from the joyful and upbeat, even danceable "Oh My Lord" to the poignant and personal "Hold Me". This album was co-produced by Steve Wood (Kenny Loggins music director) and the resulting production values are superb. Sax, guitar, tablas, flute, organ, bass and percussion contribute richly to this heart-warming joy of an album. Kathy's voice is stunning and as pure as the love in her heart, and her piano work compliments her poetic and moving songs with grace and beauty. Highly recommended! |
