Kate Victoria "KT" Tunstall (born 23 June 1975) is a Scottish singer-songwriter and musician. She first gained attention with a 2004 live solo performance of her song "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" on Later... with Jools Holland and has subsequently also appeared in two episodes of the comedy series This Is Jinsy on Sky Atlantic. In 2025 it was estimated that Tunstall's accumulated record sales totalled seven million. Her accolades include a Q Award, European Border Breakers Award, two Ivor Novello Awards, a UK Music Video Award, and a BRIT Award for Best British Female Artist. Additionally, she has been nominated for a Grammy Award, Mercury Prize, World Music Award, and a Hollywood Music in Media Award.
The name of her debut studio album, Eye to the Telescope, was inspired by her childhood experiences at her father's physics laboratory at University of St Andrews. Released in 2004, the album was a strong seller worldwide, selling over five million copies internationally, and ultimately became the 51st best-selling album of the 2000s decade in the United Kingdom. The single, "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree", was given the Q Magazine Award for Best Track in 2005, and "Suddenly I See" won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song in 2006. "Suddenly I See" became a popular hit and was featured in the hit film The Devil Wears Prada and adopted as a campaign song for the Hillary Clinton 2008 presidential campaign. Her second album, Drastic Fantastic (2007), features some tracks written prior to the release of Eye to the Telescope and was supported by the singles "Hold On", "Saving My Face", and "If Only". She began the 2010s decade with the release of her third album, Tiger Suit (2010).
In April 2013, she released "Feel It All" as the lead single from her fourth album, Invisible Empire // Crescent Moon (2013). From 2016 until 2022, she released three albums as a trilogy – Kin (2016), Wax (2018), and Nut (2022). Singles released during this period include "Maybe It's a Good Thing" and "It Took Me So Long to Get Here, But Here I Am". In 2023 she partnered with American singer and bassist Suzi Quatro on the collaborative album Face to Face.
