KATIE AND THE HONKY TONKS
Honky Tonk is a funny thing. It’s the only musical form that also describes where you’ll hear it and how you’ll be dancing while the band plays. It’s made for breaking bottles over broken hearts while whiskey flows and fists fly.
Katie and her band of Honky Tonks hail from Waterloo, Iowa. They embody the classic spirit of honky tonk music. The band’s signature sound is characterized by Katie’s emotive vocals, delivering heartbreakingly beautiful melodies and honest, storytelling lyrics. |
