Summary

Today on Let There Be Talk I am featuring a brand new artist Kate Vargas.

A few months ago my good friend Eric McFadden turned me on to this record called Rumpumpo by Kate Vargas and I was blown away. I knew I had to have her on the show and dig into her journey.

From growing up in a small artist community in New Mexico to going to Berklee College of Music to grinding it out in the Coffee Shop Open Mics in NYC, It's all here.

I am always fired up when I can turn people on to new music so do yourself a favor and check out her records after hearing this episode and help spread the word.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK

2:03.0	York City a few weeks ago, we sat down and talked about how she started and how she got
2:10.8	the sound, her influences and coming from New Mexico and landing in New York City via
