After two extraordinary albums “The street of the Marimba”, “2 de Abril”, with which he won several awards such as the Prize, Jose Afonso " (2023), or the prize José da Ponte (2024) and a number of public shares at the protests/demonstrations on topics such as Housing, Kate, it is confirmed in the “The Ferry's Gold” clearly, the "Singer of the' the world of today.

“The Ferry's Gold”as a consequence of the signs of the times, it has a Kate more in combat than ever before. On tracks such as “The House of Bernarda Alba,” “No Country For women”, “Ferry " gold” Invisible Borders”, “stand up in a school (for an end to the bull fighting), “No Inventes” or “the Basics”writing/poetry, bitter, and to the criticism of the front of inequalities and social policies that are raised flags for Kate, while there is space for items that are intimate such as, for example, his relationship with his mother.

According to the author of "The themes of this album is born from the texts of third parties, to the way it was originally intended, paintings, mannerisms, speech, parliament, government and the news. In places where only nature makes the day well. They are free trials and observation; have nothing to do with the students. They are the day houses, messy, and families of the bereaved. Bad teeth and fists clenched, the irony of collective dreams, raised to the ground."

There are 19 subjects who are no longer here in small notes:

1 – “The House of Bernarda Alba” on the part of the Federico García Lorca (1936), which depicts the intensity of the repression the female universe, serving as a critical, symbolic of the patriarchal society and the authority of the season, and it has come to once again become more and more present in the society.

2 – “This Is Not For Women”a true manifesto, as against the discrimination that women face in their careers, with the verses of the maxillary incisors as the “great beast, only to get to the” or “in the promotion of frozen, don't be mestruada”, which indicate the way to cutting to the conditions implemented.

3 – “Aurora -”about the poem - “the Mysteries of the vanity” from the poet, Setúbal (native Catia) Mariana Fernanda de Andrade. "Girl, don't" this track tells a sad story in between the constant-pressure and social pressure on women to have a perfect look and feeling of an intimate (“he wiped his face and it felt good”), and the relationships that wicked (the abuse of) power, and sexual harassment in the workplace. (we will have to make a very good use of your dignity”).

4 – “On the Train, take on his name” the account in the Letter excerpt Chackras, Prétu Xullaji and it explores concepts such as the weight of the social networks, branding, identity, and resistance.

5 – “In Love the account in the letter excerpt “In Love,” Allen's Halloween, and the poem, “The world,” Maria Teresa Horta. The perecidade of your feelings, memories, loneliness, and despair. (“My life is a roulette with 5 bullets in the barrel”).

6 – “The Ferry's Gold”the track that gives name to the album, it stands as a manifesto against the “privatisation” of Trojan and many other Tróias” — transformed into a luxury resort for the elite. With lyrics such as “all the rivers come together, don't leave half of it”, the song denounces the appropriation of public spaces, and social exclusion: the masquerade-progress.

7 – “The Shoes of My Mother.”, Katie reflects the inability of her mother to wear the high-heeled shoes for days-of-leave”, but that, because of the weariness of a hard life, never came to be for the first time. More of a metaphor for the hardness is silent, as experienced by so many of the women whose dreams are often-times, on the go.

8 -“Don't you know baby” your account with pieces of “the roads are to say to the Council. By continuing to registry, after the reference to the shoe, Katie has a little prayer/I am sorry about her she has a mother, and that was to say. It is at the same time, a song of grief, and of course, a call to move on, to rebuild himself from the memory, and it's gone.

9 – “Get off to a Schoolabout the poem - “the bull fight” from the Mariana Fernanda Andrade, Kate proposes an end to the bull fighting and the rise of a school in the town square. (“what if you kill a tradition, the tradition of abuse for no reason”).

10 – “Invisible Borders” with the passage of the “The poem by Jorge Amado” de Noémia de Sousa casts a critical depth in the border — be it physical, political, or ideological beliefs. With lyrics such as, “how many deaths will still fit on the edge”, and “there are always those who shoot those who don't want to”, she denounced the violence, silence, and explicit, that are the result of the decisions of those who draw maps, and the control of life and death for those in search of a better life.

11 – “It Cleans The Palate,” music Brad Miendes (the ever-present at the creation "Girl, don't"and the voice of the João Mota and it comes out as a sort of respite. A new creation that allows you to navigate through a sea of emotions and thought, and ease the emotional burden left by the previous tracks.

12 – “Topiary” in a letter to the powerful, to Kate with a beat The “Auto de fé” by Sam the Kid the pain of the loss, and the management of time and the importance/priority-setting in your life, and it is very close to the ones that are the most important (family). It was possible, “I wish for a time, it happens slowly so kind and” feel the weight of the pain of their absence, and thinking about all of the times you don't and if you've been a gift. (“this is the opposite of a being in the whole of the hand”)

13 – “Impossible.” Kate interprets this poem “Impossible,” de Florbela Espanca in a masterly way, giving it a look that it adds to the pain, and a lack of understanding in the face of suffering intimate as to be invisible in the eyes of others.

14 – “Let's talk about the Cards on this track, Kate takes on the correspondence between the De Lisboa, e Luísa Dacosta, Afonso Duarte, Jose or the Royal to build a fitting tribute to one of the most important writers of the movement, literary modernism, a work which is marked by criticism of the living conditions of the women and of the working class.

15 – “No Inventes” the track, composed for the Poems, “No Inventes” Jose Carlos de Barros, and The “Cure” of Louis-Philippe Parrado great for fresh counterparts, in a trouble loving. (“Don't forget the address. Please note:
I want you did you me, my love.”)

16 – “Alaska -”a creation of the John Frame it starts with an “a road that ends up at the Moment,” as the final destination, where there is a sign with the words “let your dreams”. The song changes the lives of a journey, a place where everything that happens before you reach for the Moment, it becomes a metaphor for the never-ending quest for new beginnings, inner transformation, and the need to focus on the realization of your dreams.

17 – “Blood brothers”after several participations in "Girl, don't" in a live show Sérgio Godinhoon this track, Kate will have the opportunity to read a poem of their own, Sergius about the brotherhood of the creation and in the perfect place.

18 -“The Man who has Seen the Bee to Die.”, Katie describes the life, and the sad story of the Bee, who dies in the Garden after you achieve your mission. The song appears to function as a metaphor for the profound about the ephemerality of life, with lyrics such as “here I am / findemos the rift,” suggesting that many of the times, it is in the nature that it brings health to your day. The reflection of the weather, and the mortality rate appears on “all the time, that the Man is wearing a to die”, and highlighted the fact that, and the fragility of our existence.

19 -“Sort of a Vague II”,it takes us back to the sea, the sail becomes a journey suffered from in between the slots. With a moan of constant and pervasive, as a cry of the soul, and is echoed in the song, showing the struggle and the pain involved in this journey.
