Kara Wethington, known by the stage nameKatalina, is a pop/dance artist who was signed to Thump Records. She is mostly known for her hit single "D.J. Girl" from her sole album Sonic Groove (1996). The album also spawned two more singles, "Sonic Groove" and "You'll Be My Future", but neither found much success on the charts.
Wethington was born in Chicago, Illinois.[1] She moved to California at a young age, where she was raised.[1]
Wethington was discovered by producer/ manager Jon St. James while she was attending Sonora High School in La Habra, California, and working part-time at his recording studio. When a vocalist failed to show up for a session, St. James asked Wethington to sit in and do a scratch vocal, which resulted in the song "DJ Girl" released under the pseudonym Katalina. The song peaked at #86 on the BillboardHot 100 in October 1996.[2]
