Kate Ireland is a Glasgow-born poet, artist, and performer. She's performed across UK theatres and festivals, had poetry featured on BBC 6 Music and at Glastonbury, and makes spoken-word-driven music with DJs and electronic artists. Her debut album Self Regulating Behaviours came out in 2024, and in 2025 she premiered her one woman spoken word show Golden Time and other behavioural management strategies at the Pleasance Dome Edinburgh Fringe. Kate also runs the Manchester arts collective Blether (Scottish verb meaning to talk in a long winded way without making very much sense) and works as a creative facilitator within mental health settings and youth engagement. It's safe to say she's keepin' busy.
