Biography

In early 1983, KATRINA & THE WAVES (as they were now called) pooled their meager resources to fund the recording of an album's worth of original material - all songs written by Rew and sung by Leskanich - intended to be sold at live shows. Numerous labels on both sides of the Atlantic were approached, but only Canadian indie Attic Records, which had previously released recordings by THE SOFT BOYS… Read more in Amazon's Katrina & The Waves Store

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best female voices in modern music, August 24, 2000
By 
James T. Rodgers (Riverside, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Katrina & The Waves - Greatest Hits: Walking on Sunshine (Audio CD)
most of us only know Katrina for the hit "Walking on Sunshine" but the numerous tracks on this greatest hits set are just as catchy and uplifting. Katrina knows how to rock out and have fun. "Sun Street" is reminiscent of the Beatles and "That's the Way" makes you want to jump up and start clapping and shaking your fist in the air. They do a superior version of "Going Down to Liverpool" which was written by a member of the Waves and was later covered by the Bangles. One listen and you will be hooked. It's a fun CD!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest, briefest power-pop bands ever, December 18, 2006
By 
This review is from: Katrina & The Waves - Greatest Hits: Walking on Sunshine (Audio CD)
Dang KATW were a powerhouse pop group! Rockin' & rollickin'. And Katrina Leskanich's voice was a marvel -- galeforce and gorgeous. This great collection is a real bargain. So many wonderful songs beyond the obvious monster hit. "Do You Want Crying," "That's The Way" and "Is That It?" are personal favorites. My only complaint (sorry!) is the omission of Vince de la Cruz's beautiful "Sleep On My Pillow," one of the all-time great lost rock ballads. The lyrics, melody and Katrina's vocal practically drip with dignity and heartbreak. Makes me WEEP on my pillow!
