Influences
sunshine in February, the sound of rain, sleeping in, being lonely, wanting more out of life, needing less, trying to remember, daydreaming, drum circles around a campfire, friendship, people who love me, people who use me, people who will never understand me, painting with blue and green, playing the guitar at 4am in my bed, my family, good conversation, candles that smell nice, insecurities, long walks on a country road, stupid boys, dreams I wake up with, the scent in the air before a thunderstorm, regret, all the what if's....., true friends, hot showers, faking a smile

Stacy picked up the guitar at eleven and began composing songs shortly after. A true introvert at heart, this artist's intimate songwriting leaves you feeling connected to every song she sings. Her musical style varies as much as the list of comparisons.---------------------------------------------
Stacy recently relocated back to the midwest, but spent the past 6 years on the East coast based out of Richmond, VA. She continually makes a positive impression in local music scenes and has built up a diverse fan base throughout her career sharing the stage with various local and national bands, headlining as a solo acoustic act in clubs and performing in a variety of area Festivals. She has been a participating artist in the Richmond Music Festival and Art Expo, CAM Fest, The Carytown WM Festival, the Fete de la Musique Festival, and was a featured performer in The Richmond Songwriter's Series. Stacy has received praise from the Richmond Music Journal, and her music also maintains steady air play on both XL102's "Studio B," and Y101's "Community Service" radio programs, and can also be caught these days on WIDR FM. -----------------------------------------------------------
Stacy Koviak has shared the stage with national acts such as Mat Kearney, Mute Math, Griffin House, Rose Polenzani, Regan, Sin City Revival, Jeff Black, Jubeus and countless local bands over the years. She is currently working on material for her new album - a collaboration with former VA guitarist David Patterson.
