Quinta (musician)

Quinta is the stage name of Katherine Mann, a London-based multi-instrumentalist, solo artist, composer and session player. She plays the violin, viola, musical saw, and keyboards. Mann's father nicknamed her "Quinta" when she was a baby; he was a teacher of Latin and Greek, and she was the fifth of five children.

Mann joined Bat for Lashes’ live line-up in 2007 and toured the UK and Europe the following year as part of Bat for Lashes’ Radiohead support tour.[1][2] She was solo accompanist to Patrick Wolf on his Sundark Riverlight Acoustic World Tour during 2012.[3][4]

Mann plays with Philip Selway,[5][6] The Paper Cinema,[7][8][9] and Marques Toliver, amongst others, and in 2009 released her debut album ‘My Sister Boudicca’ on the Tartaruga record label.[10][11][12][13]
