SXSW Review: Kate Tempest, March 17, Latitude 30

Screen Shot 2015-03-18 at 10.27.37 AM

Kate Tempest is simply put, amazing live.

Part hip hop, part spoken word, all truth. Kate Tempest put on one of the best showcases I have seen in awhile at SXSW. A spoken work artist who has won poetry award and slam contests, Kate Tempest blends works and messages with the best of them. She’s also a proud performer capable of delivering her messages a capella, which is itself quite different.

Combining intricate wordplay with boundless energy and bone shaking beats, it was one of the most freshest and funnest shows I have been to in a long time.

She’s playing four more times at SXSW. Do yourself a favor and check her out.
