Embracing Change and Growth: Kat Reinhert Releases ‘Runnin’ ‘


Kat Reinhert is an artist that has a real gift for storytelling in her music. You can hear she’s inspired by artists like Joni Mitchell, Sara Bareilles, and John Mayer, yet her music is really personal, sharing her own journey—one of embracing who she is with honesty and vulnerability. Her latest song, Runnin’  is about transformation and finding hope in change. She actually wrote it during the pandemic, inspired by so many people leaving New York City for more open spaces. At the same time, it made her think about her own journey of moving to New York from Wisconsin almost 20 years ago.

With a voice that is very deep, rich, and melodic, Kat’s vocals grab your attention from the start. The song was produced by her Ross Pederson. It’s grounded in her background in jazz, folk, and pop, but this song leans more into singer-songwriter and folk vibes, which feels like a natural fit for her. The result is a beautiful mix of styles, that shows how versatile she is while still staying true to herself. Runnin’ is a song that celebrates change and the strength it takes to embrace it. 

 

Kat’s artistic journey extends beyond her singles and albums. Her 2021 album, Dead Reckoning, was praised for being raw and authentic. But her creativity doesn’t stop there. She’s worked on all kinds of projects, from podcasts to children’s music, which shows how passionate she is about connecting with people through her work. On top of that, she’s a professor of Songwriting at Berklee College of Music, where she’s helping shape the next generation of musicians. She also teamed up with Sarah Gulish to create Songwriting for Music Educators, a resource that helps teachers bring creativity into their classrooms.

At the heart of Kat Reinhert’s work lies a real commitment to storytelling, growth, and helping others find their own voice. Whether she’s making music, teaching, or working on new projects, everything she does is about being authentic and growingHer new song, Runnin’, is a beautiful reminder of how powerful change can be and how much we can become better people when we face our journeys with courage. With her deep voice and ever-evolving sound, she’s definitely making a lasting impact on the music world, one song at a time.
