Kate Nord is a Finnish singer/songwriter and a classically trained vocalist creating symphonic fantasy metal music from Central Italy.
Discovering the music of Nightwish in high school led to an obsession with the combination of classical vocals and heavy metal. This inspired studies in classical vocals both in Finland and in Italy.
In 2013 Kate became the lyricist for Italian progressive power metal band Noveria.
The inspiration for Kate’s own music comes from Scandinavian medieval ballads and folk tales about trolls and fairies, as well as the illustrations for those tales, such as the works of John Bauer, and fantasy novels such as the works of J. R.R. Tolkien. All without forgetting about the powerful heavy metal sounds with blasting drums and churning distortion guitars.
The debut album "Compass To Your Heart's Desire" was released in 2022, earning the title of "Symphonic Metal Album of the Year" in Mexico.
Since 2023, Kate is the lead vocalist for AqvileA, an epic cinematic metal project from northern Italy inspired by the history of Ancient Rome.
