IMKT which is pronounced as I Am Katie is from near Stuttgart Germany.From five years old Katie attended music school and growing up in the 80’s by the age of eight she was singing in a choir inspired by bands such as Def Leppard,White Lion & Foreigner !In 2005 Katie formed her first band Anima whilst writing English language songs in her studio and performing in the southern region of Germany.Five years later she formed the band Kahira signing a deal with 7 US Music releasing three German language albums.In 2014 a special highlight in Katie's career was when she won a songwriting competition hosted by station  Antenne.She was personally selected by Ritchie Sambora (Bon Jovi) to be the opening act at the Liderhalle in Stuttgart,which also resulted with her performing a song on stage with Sambora.”Sooner Or Later” the first solo English language album sees Katie going back to those 80’s roots.The album is produced by Michael Borman,which also features international songwriters and musicians(see line up above).

Starting of the album with some melodic and bright keys the very upbeat and positive “Dreams Come Will Come True” is a superb feel good opener with a huge chorus with glorious harmonies.”Sooner Or Later” is an album with lots of feel good factor songs the wonderful "Don't Take It Too Serious” is another superb feel good track with a strong,subtle vocal backed by superb rhythm & guitars,the chorus is infectious and had me singing along in no time as did “If You Can Dream It” is another great track with a positive & upbeat message.The brilliant and melodic “Two Hearts” is a perfect sounding 80’s power ballad which has that radio heavy rotation appeal,"What Can I Say” another fantastic track has this hooky key chord along with the appealing melody & another huge chorus which combine to make a superb rock/pop track similar to the likes of Belinda Carlisle and 80’s Cher."Sooner Or Later “ and “I’m Just A Girl” are slick,smooth AOR tracks with great guitars,keys and rhythm with more smooth vocals & polished production all with that 80’s roots running through them reminding me of Robin Beck,Fiona & Sandi Saraya.”Fun,Fun,Fun” is another great feel good AOR track to rock out to and loose control and be care free.The album comes to an end as it started with “Happy Ending” upbeat melody,lyrics that leave you smiling from ear to ear.

“Sooner Or Later” is a superb AOR/melodic rock album. Every track is packed full of 80’s nostalgia full of glorious harmonies,melodies,rhythm with some slick guitar work with IMKT’s smooth voice combined with the big harmonic earworm catchy choruses and stellar production.This album blew me away and I can’t stop playing it!If you are feeling down or had a bad day just stick this album on. It has such a feelgood fact about it, a highly recommended album.
