Kate Bush began playing piano at a young age, and by her mid-teens had composed over 200 songs. Her talent caught the notice of David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) who assisted in arranging her contract with EMI. The first song she released, "Wuthering Heights", soared to #1 in England in 1978. Since then Kate has achieved a notable career as a singer and musician. Kate began producing her own albums and videos early on. Her growing interest in film was highly evident in the 1985 video for her song "Cloudbusting" which starred Donald Sutherland, which is a mini-film in itself. Another 1985 video, "Hounds of Love", is a tribute to Alfred Hitchcock. Following the release of her 1993 album "The Red Shoes", influenced by filmmaker Michael Powell, Kate produced the short film The Line, the Cross & the Curve , using five songs from the album as a basis for the film in a mysterious, mythical retelling of the tale of The Red Shoes.
