Katie O’Malley
Sunday 21st August 2022
A voice that pours with emotion and fills a venue, Katie O’Malley and her hip-swaying Americana band have played across the UK. Hailing from Manchester, they describe their sound as mix of country, folk, soul & blues. Their 70’s inspired music takes you on a journey of mournful melody to punchy beats and gravelly powerful vocals with a sense of Stevie Nicks meets the blues.
Together, they have received airplay from Amazing radio USA, BBC Introducing, supporting top ten album selling Beth Rowley and country star Kimmie Rhodes.
Although 2020 had many set-backs for artists it didn’t stop Katie from releasing new music with the release of her third E.P ‘Wild West’ and new single ‘Taste the Dirt’ being backed by Chris Country Radio, Louder Than War and BCMA.
Katie also teamed up with Adam Lewis from Manchester band The Watchmakers together they created their song “Piece Of The Pie” which was featured on the hit Netflix film ‘Kissing Booth 2” gaining over 66 million views in its first few weeks of broadcast.
“Katie’s singing reminds me of some of the best woman vocalists of the 70’s folk rock movement, hints of Stevie Nicks and Linda Thompson.” – The Modern Folk music of America
“utterly captivating and hypnotizing blend of melodies and lyrics, she paints a picture that is so passionate, so raw and so rebellious yet down to earth.” – Wolf in a Suit
