The Heart of Katherine is a collaborative pop-soul project started by Marty Bryant. The Heart of Katherine's self titled EP was a crowd funded project, with much of the support coming from people all over the world that Marty met during his travels across Europe, Asia, and Australia. The debut EP was released as a gift to the street performer that inspired the band’s name and went on to chart in the New Zealand Top 40. Marty considers the project a musical dairy of expression with a heart of bringing people to know faith through music.
