I’m incredibly content to have chanced across this endearing bedroom concoction, albeit a little belatedly. What You Told Me is a sweetly affecting, bittersweetly stripped back ballad from kate con, who looks to be a bedroom artist out of Chicago with Filipino-American heritage. According to what she wrote on Soundcloud, What You Told Me is the very first track she’s ever uploaded to Soundcloud. Tender ukulele strums, a gentle stream of keys, and sincerely candid lyrics draw us deep into this intimate confessional. What You Told Me feels like an open book and a direct glimpse into kate con’s own heart. It’s a song that mirrors the allure of recent bedroom stars and rising acts to watch, like Clairo, beabadoobee, mxmtoon, and girl in red. kate con is easily the latest in this stream of adulated artists to entice our ears and perk our interest. She’s since followed up the Soundcloud debut with a second song named ‘we were children too’, featuring twilight electronic production, a glistering R&B pop sheen, and more vivid beats. Hopefully, we’ll learn more about kate con soon. Till then, let’s get the word out on this fantastic new discovery, because these kate con deserve some attention, stat!
