NEW YORK—It's tough to make it as a singer in New York City. As Fred Ebb's timeless challenge states, "if you can make it there, you'll make it anywhere," and it's true—there are a lot of ladders to climb and dues to pay. But standing in the spotlight, surrounded by the rich, chocolate, mirrored walls and crystal-laden chandeliers of the Rainbow Room, Timatha Kasten certainly makes it look easy.
And by easy, I mean effortless. Kasten has poise on stage and masterfully controls a dynamic voice to present a performance both graceful and, more importantly, trustworthy.

Bio
In a time when synthetic melodies, uncreative lyrics, and mediocre vocals tend to rule the airwaves, the industry is starving for musical creativity. The public is hungry for real music freshness and seem to be disgruntled about the limits of the current Top 40 rotation. The public has spoken and we have the singer and top NYC musicians who will "knock your socks off" with a BIG, GORGEOUS and HARMONIOUS natural sound performing classy swing, standards, jazz, big band and some spicy latin music too - young and fun. Native Texan, Timatha Kasten is the Band Leader and Vocalist of Timatha K & Her TKO Orchestra based in New York City. Whether singing for President Busch, Sr. or singing at the Rainbow Room in NYC for public dinner and dancing nights she has received RAVE reviews. TKO is her newest project and it is creating quite the buzz. "Currently we are recording our 1st CD, and while rehearsing, other musicians were running in to tell us how awesome it sounds and even asked if they could be called to do this gig!" We are influenced by the styles of Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Tito Puente to name a few. Our "featured" arrangements are done by Jack Daney and also some of our own band members. If you are looking for real, melodic music with a natural, big, beautiful wall of sound, you have come to the right place. No drum machines.... No synthesizers... Just 100% real talented musicians who have worked very hard to get to this level.
