Multi-instrumentalist and singer Kate St. John is classically trained. Some may know her from her work with Channel Light Vessel, The Dream Academy and more recently with Van Morrison. Her classical training is clearly evident on her second solo CD, which was appropriately titled "Second sight". Her sometimes sugar-sweet voice in "Where the warm winds blow" even reminds a bit of the Dutch-American
