Four Questions With Kate Miller-Heidke

Brisbane pop singer Kate Miller-Heidke

Kate Miller-Heidke. KMH. She’s a Brisbane-based pop singer-songwriter. She’s been named by, oh, basically every artist playing the One Movement Showcase Music Festival as the act to see. Joe Echo, Little Red, Hilltop Hoods.. okay, maybe we were exaggerating, but Miller-Heidke is a serious drawcard. In the weeks surrounding One Movement, she’s touring the United States with none other than Mr Ben Folds. Miss KMH took the time to answer four questions for One Movement Word.

Kate, what’s your favourite song this week?

‘Picture Window’ by Ben Folds and Nick Hornby [live video from July 2009 embedded below].

What do you hope to gain from the One Movement Festival and Conference?

I hope to catch up with some old friends, and who knows, maybe make some new ones!

Which artists’ showcase sets are you most looking forward to watching?

Frankmusic, Sarah Blasko, Hilltop Hoods.

One Movement’s tagline is “Artist, Industry, Fan United”. What do you think needs to change in order to unite the music industry with its artists and fans?

The ‘industry’ is such a broad term that it’s probably not a good idea to generalize about it. However, if I were to generalize about it, I’d say that the industry will never be united with the fans, because it doesn’t have any. The fans are there for the artists. The industry is there to connect fans and artists. It is there to serve, not to intervene.

Rub shoulders with Little Red, Joe Echo and Hilltop Hoods when you watch Kate Miller-Heidke play the Snowball Stage at 8.15pm on Sunday, 18th October 2009 (full timetable here). Follow Kate on Facebook and Twitter; her video for the award-winning song ‘Caught In The Crowd’ is embedded below.
