About
2026
Hello! My name is Katie and I adore music with my whole being. It is such a gift from God to nourish our souls, and communicate in ways words and images canβt.
I am a student, an artist, a daughter, a friend, and believe it or not, music affects every one of my roles in a distinct way.
I am challenging myself to listen to a new album about every day (sometimes I double up to catch up lol) in order to expand my tastes and get familiar with some NEW STUFF!!! Anyways. I am excited. Read if you like, but this is for me and I suppose you can tag along.

In December, I decided I would listen to a new album everyday in 2026
It was ambitious, but I have been keeping up! There is so much music I simply have not heard…Genres I ain’t never heard of…we gotta change this.

I want to connect with my peeps
I talk to so many people about music!I wanted a place to share what I’m into currently, and hopefully inspire you to listen to something new.

I do not keep up with Spotify as much because I have moved over to Tidal, a streaming platform I have come to prefer. If you too have an account with Tidal, check out my playlists here:
