Kate Bush is a singular force in the world of music, known for her idiosyncratic vocal style, literary lyricism, and boundary-pushing compositions. Bush was born on July 30, 1958, in Bexleyheath, Kent, England. She burst onto the music scene in 1978 with the stunningly original single "Wuthering Heights," which topped the U.K. charts and made her a household name. Her distinctive voice and theatrical approach to performance immediately set her apart from her contemporaries.

Over the years, Kate Bush has cultivated a deeply devoted fanbase with her eclectic and genre-defying albums. Her work ranges from the experimental rhythms of "The Dreaming" to the lush, atmospheric layers of "Hounds of Love," often praised as her masterpiece. Despite her considerable success, Bush has remained a reclusive figure, seldom touring and traditionally shunning the public eye, which has only added to her mystique. A true artist, she has consistently prioritized her creative vision over commercial concerns, resulting in a body of work that is as enduring as it is innovative. The 2018 remasters of her storied discography, including albums such as "The Sensual World" and "Aerial," offer a refreshed sonic experience of her influential and eclectic soundscapes, underlining Bush's legacy as one of the most unique and uncompromising musicians in the history of popular music.
