Biography:

Kathleen ‘Kat’ Pearson-Thomas was born circa 1969 in Long Beach California . Moving to London she joined "Black Girl Rock" who appeared on The Word and recorded the hit single "Things Can Only Get Better" with D:Ream, which to lead to a tour of the UK, Belgium, Russia and Italy. She then signed to Columbia Records with a band called Comanche Park that issued an album "Crucify" and wrote the music for channel 4’s "Naked City". The band appeared to sell-out crowds at The Shepard’s Bush Empire, The Forum in Kentish Town and The Grand in Clapham before they embarked on a two-year tour of Europe, dates included the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland.
After the band disbanded Kat decided to move into the theatre business and appeared in "Funny Girl" at the Bloomsbury Theatre and "What’s Love Got To Do With It" at The Hackney Empire. At the same time she became a photo model and was videoed pouting in the Chemical Brothers hit video "Block Rockin’ Beats" and in a slew of other adverts including the famous "Bald is Beautiful" look for Carlsberg Beer. During this time she also appeared on Top of the Pops, TFI Friday and the Jonathan Ross Show and The Shane Richie Experience with LuLu as a singer/bass player. Kat also toured extensively as a dancer throughout Italy with M.A.R.S ‘Pump up The Volume.
