Standing at a mediocre five feet, four inches tall, Katie Costello is a living homage to the saying ‘never judge a book by its cover.’ Despite her diminutive stature, and having accumulated only 18 years of existence, her mighty imagination yields a one-of-a-kind kazoo virtuosity and a unique lyrical approach to her vintage-esque original tunes. Musical inspirations for Katie include Billie Holliday, X, Fiona Apple, New Buffalo, and Bob Dylan.
When not ‘song-doodling’, as she has been known to call it, Katie can be found sulking in public libraries, skimming through critically acclaimed tween drama-comedy novels, and/or collecting cute rocks with fun personalities from her hometown Hermosa Beach, or some other rock-abundant natural setting.
What some might deem an old-soul, Katie prefers to consider herself a grandma stuck inside a slightly less matronly body. In addition to playing the super slick Los Angeles and New York club scenes, she performs regularly at homes for the elderly in compliance with her inner octogenarian
Despite her biting sarcasm and unrepentant banter, Katie truly strives to be a sounding voice for the hopelessly warped, while simultaneously promoting the significance and paramount need for genuine creative passion.
Katie's music is on KCRW (89.9 Santa Monica) 'Morning Becomes Eclectic' & was chosen as their "KCRW Top Tune of the Day" free iTunes download.
Her songs have been featured on the CW shows "90210," "One Tree Hill," and ABC's "Private Practice."
'Kaleidoscope Machine' is available on iTunes & was the iTunes 'Indie Artist Spotlight'.

Hey Katie! Listening to Can't Fix Us Two for the third time in a row right now. I'm stuck in a cubicle, working this weekend, and your songs are making it all better! Your voice is so rich and textured and lovely and sweet-sad-pretty! Love it! Love these songs! Hope to make your Hotel Utah show and come play with you in LA sometime! Would be so fun! See you in SF soon! :-) xoxox Heather
So I've worked at a movie theater for a little over a year now. And in that time, I've cleaned alott of theaters. And if you ask anyone whose ever worked at a Century Theater, they'll all tell you CINEMARK RADIO sucks. We have to listen to the same 3 terrible songs over and over again every month, and its enough to drive you crazy. But about a month ago Kaleidoscope Machine started playing in between showtimes. And I've yet to tire of it. So thanks for making such lovely music, and overall being such a snazzy person. <3Nate
How many sugar cubes do you take in your tea, lol ? Such a beautiful, inquisitive and creative soul... "Isn't it lovely" is my favorite... It reminds me of a soft summer evening in Philly... you should come play on the Jersey shore...
