Polymorph was recorded over an eight week period this past summer at Evans' private studio in Cape Cod. Newcomer Borkowski, an immensely talented vocalist and songstress, with an English degree from the University of Notre Dame, focuses her gifts of powerful perception and melody on each of Polymorph's 12 original songs. Evans contributes his own dark bass grooves along with a masterful production style, which manages to be both spacious and lush, never losing the trail of Borkowski's unmistakably haunting voice or piano.

Evans, who also arranged the album's strings, says of his artist, "Kate Borkowski is a producer's dream. She brings to the plate a collection of songs that are contemporary, while still keeping one foot in the singer/songwriter tradition of classic hooks and melodies. She has clear ideas about how her songs should be received by the world, but is confident enough to accept new ideas and collaboration. Look forward to hearing a record that moves easily from dark to light and back!"

It is fitting then, that a 'polymorph' is an organism that can assume more than one form. Borkowski's album does just that; it reinvents itself continuously, fluidly shifting styles, structures and moods. But even as it morphs, the album maintains its essence: emotionally naked lyrics replete with metaphor, ethereal vocals, and addictive piano melodies, all accentuated by playful jazz drums, sensual bass grooves, and the emotion only strings can bring.

'Average Josephine', the first listen track from the album (and one of only a couple guitar-oriented songs), showcases Borkowski's piercing lyrical prowess as she effortlessly tells a singular story of the poor, while donning the masks of today's military servicemen and women, the New Orleans service underclass, and the French Revolutionary.

Polymorph was mastered by the iconic Bob Ludwig (Mumford & Sons, 2012 Album of the Year recipients) at Gateway Mastering.

The album is available digitally on iTunes and Amazon starting today, November 12, 2013.
