Making the Continental United States trek from Florida to the West Coast, Kat Dahlia visited the Crocodile on December 11th. The Miami born singer-songwriter, acclaimed for her music and lyrics plus her rhymes (those raps!), Dahlia now makes her home in Los Angeles. On her debut album, My Garden, she worked with a few producers, including Salaam Remi. You may recognize that name from his work with Nas, or Amy Winehouse, or Jordin Sparks, among others.

Andie Case, a local artist from Marysville, WA, opened the evening. You can hear several of Case’s songs on her ReverbNation; she also did a cool cover of Justin Bieber’s “Sorry.” Case has appeared in Teen Vogue, and we’re looking forward to more from her in 2016!
