Listen to the latest singles from their new record - Ain't No Shame ​out June 27th 2025

"A slow-burning honky tonk ballad, the track pulls no punches when it comes to heartache. From the first notes of Katie’s vocals, you’re transported to the corner of a dimly lit bar, where the last slow song of the night stirs up memories you’d long forgotten. You can almost feel the worn hardwood floors beneath your feet and see the faint glow of the dusty jukebox in the corner" turnuptheamp.com on "Slowdown Honey"

"Fresh honky tonk music and a powerful winsome vocal track leads the way on this song of new possibilities and dancing in the light of anticipation. Sometimes escaping into a honky tonk is exactly what you need to escape the rest of the world around you, and for this we prescribe Katie and the Honky Tonks"   americanahighways.org on "Dancehall"

“Their EP has all the honky-tonk ingredients that the golden age of country music is known for: great hooks, harmonies, relatable, honest lyrics; and pedal steel”. Little Village
