I first saw Kat Sotelo perform last October at Offerings, an intimate performance series in the Church of St. Mary the Virgin just a half block from Times Square. This place of worship, steps away from a bygone red-light district, was in many ways the perfect setting for a work-in-progress showing of A DEVOTION TO SERVICE.
