Her album, Kat’s Out of the Bag!, will arrive April 17, 2026.
Musical theater performer Katerina McCrimmon (Funny Girl) has released “Night and Day,” her new, jazzy take on the Cole Porter standard. This is the first single from her forthcoming debut album, Kat’s Out of the Bag!, arriving April 17, 2026.
“From the very first bass lick, our version of ‘Night and Day’ teases the listener and invites them in,” McCrimmon says. “I knew I wanted Kat’s Out of the Bag! to have its own distinct personality that mirrors my own: cheeky and fun, but still deeply rooted in tradition.”
Produced by Paul Hannah, Kat’s Out of the Bag! featured eight standards recorded live over two days at 800 East Studios in Atlanta, without rehearsals. The sessions were intentionally fast and unguarded, due to touring schedules and musicians based across the country.
“There was something beautifully ephemeral about it,” McCrimmon says. “Recording that way meant there was no room to overthink. We just trusted each other and followed the music.”
Other tracks on the album include “Under My Skin," “I Fall In Love Too Easily," and Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered." Pre-save the album here.
