KATIE O' MALLEY
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 and proud northerners, they describe their sound as a mix of Americana, Blues & Rock. Their 70's inspired music takes you on a journey of catchy melody to guitar heavy sounds and gravelly throttling vocals, giving an essence of Janis Joplin brought in to modern day rootsy rock.
Together, they have received airplay from Amazing radio USA, BBC Introducing UK, supporting top ten album selling Beth Rowley and country star Kimmie Rhodes.
Although these past couple of years have been a turbulent time for artists it's not stopped Katie from releasing new music with the release of her fourth E.P ‘ Dirt On My Knees' backed by the British Country Music Association and Planet Rock Radio.
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.
