KatieBeth

Bio:

If your here to hear some kick ass rocking country music, you came to the right place. Since 2004 KatieBeth has been rocking it out in WI, and TN at festivals, in her own band, and in the Colgate Country Showdown where in 2005 she took second place out of 1400 contestants at the WI state Finals. With a voice born in rock and roll and stained by whiskey her powerful energy on stage and raw vocal talent of twenty years is the kind of talent ready to make her own blazing trail in the music world. Breaking From The Shadows is an aptly titled first effort for the Milwaukee-based KatieBeth. The album opens with the bluesy, swirly, hip swinger “I Will Survive” that’s based on a guitar hook very reminiscent of Carrie Underwood’s “Before He Cheats.” The album slides along without much fanfare for a bit, but the highlights are definitely in the middle.

~I am a singer, songwriter I grew up in Merton, WI. I love to sing, dance, perform, write music and pretty much anything that involves me on stage The music I am inspired to make is country rock all the way, with influences from Keith Urban, Heart, Pink, Rob Thomas, Bon Jovi, Saving Jane & Sugarland. This album/my music is rock, with the hints of country throughout. It is something different, and new, and I am so proud of this music, it is me in every line and guitar lick. My family and close friends have always been supportive of everything I am doing and trying to accomplish which I am so thankful for because without them I wouldn't be where I am.
