Kathryn Williams talks Paul Weller collaborations and her new album - Mystery Park

Singer-songwriter Kathryn Williams returns to the podcast to talk about her brand-new album Mystery Park - a deeply personal and reflective record that includes a beautiful co-write with Paul Weller, 'Gossamer Wings'. Kathryn shares the story of how the song came together, from her initial “cringe” moment of writing at Paul to their eventual collaboration, which also saw Weller add Hammond organ and backing vocals. We also revisit their earlier work together on 'So Quietly' from his 66 Supplement EP, a track that also featured legendary bassist Danny Thompson.In our wide-ranging chat, Kathryn reflects on family, songwriting, and creativity - whether that’s balancing life on the road with raising teenage sons, painting her own album cover, or uncovering the emotions behind her lyrics. We also talk about her Patreon community, live shows, and the joy of finding connection through art. Always funny, thoughtful, and generous, Kathryn offers a warm and honest insight into her music and her collaborations with Weller.Find podcast show notes and sign up for regular information at PaulWellerFanPodcast.com Hosted on Acast.
