Early life and education Katie Wighton grew up in Brisbane, Queensland and attended Kedron State High School, the daughter of musical parents. At the age of six, Wighton commenced learning piano. In 2015 Wighton said, "The first time I ever sang in public was in high school with the army cadet band. I was a bit of a music nerd if I'm honest; I loved my music teachers and I spent plenty of time skipping maths and practising the piano or singing with my mates". In 2007, Wighton was awarded the Generations in Jazz Vocal Scholarship awarded by James Morrison. Shayen de Silva from Happy Mag said, "With an incredible vocal performance and distinctive take on melancholy, Katie Wighton exudes grace on her Oh-Dark-Hours EP".

In April 2020, Wighton released "Good Guy", the lead single from the EP under the alias, Kit. The EP was released on 13 November 2020.

In 2022 Wighton signed with ABC Music. In March 2023, Wighton announced the forthcoming release of debut studio album The End, preceded by the singles "Take You Home", "Narcissist" and "Without You".
