In 2006, after eight years of fronting the critically acclaimed Colorado-based band, Newcomers Home, Katie Herzig moved to Nashville to strike it solo. Before leaving Colorado, she single-handedly recorded and produced Weightless, a tour-de-force of innovative sonics and songwriting. Since then Herzig’s song “Heaven’s My Home” received a 2007 Grammy nomination and she has steadily become a fixture in Nashville’s up-and-coming indie music scene. Herzig’s songs have been featured on NPR, KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic, One Tree Hill, Bones, The Secret Life of Bees, Sex and the City The Movie Vol. 2 Soundtrack, and episodes of television’s highest rated drama, Grey’s Anatomy. Katie has toured with the Tenn out of Tenn tour, Hotel Café Tour, PASTE Magazine songwriter tour and has supported national acts such as The Fray, Brandi Carlile, Shawn Colvin, Aqualung and others. In 2008, Katie is featured in Billboard Magazine’s “Now Hear This” as well as one of PASTE Magazine’s 25 “Best of What’s Next” Artists. She continues to out-do herself with each new musical endeavor. Her latest is “Apple Tree”: a spellbinding, uniquely immersive listening experience that manages to be at once playful and impassioned--challenging and comfortable---intimate and epic… which is exactly what listeners have come to expect of Katie Herzig.
Hey Katie! My friend Meesh mentioned she saw you at your concert with Brandi Carlile (and she said you rocked it!). Sorry I missed your other LA shows - are you going to be at the TOT concert out here?!

Wishing You all the best Christopher W Herbert (New Zealand)

Think of a mix of NORAH JONES, COLDPLAY, BEATLES, JACK JOHNSON, to name a few :)
I'm an up-and-coming songwriter looking to build my fanbase, finding new fans who want to get in on the GROUND LEVEL so they can say they knew of me when :)
I know you'll find at least one song that I've written that you will connect with.
Come by and listen, add me as a friend, and let me know what you think :)
Thanks for your message and for being my MySpace friend. Our friendship is more than just a fad, it's a digital experience that can only grow more beautiful with time. Rock on and hope to hear from you again soon.
