_______________
Southern Americana artist Katie Basden has spent 16 years in Nashville building a career rooted in song, soul, and an unmistakable voice. A Top 20 finalist on NBC’s The Voice, Katie has since lent her voice to recordings for artists including Celine Dion and Iam Tongi, performed alongside Maggie Rose at the Grand Ole Opry and Austin City Limits, produced a full-length record at Nashville’s The 1979, and was hand-selected as a featured vocalist for Dolly Parton’s Threads: My Songs in Symphony by Dolly Parton herself. Now, after years of moving between her own artistry and helping bring the music of others to life, Katie is opening the songbook again, beginning work on a live acoustic project featuring songs written throughout her 16 years in Nashville. Stripped back to voice, story, and song, it’s both a return to where she started and a reflection of the artist she’s still becoming.
