Katie Mae

is an independent songwriter from Phoenix, Arizona, playing shows across the Southwest, both solo and with her band, the Lubrication. Featuring Katie Mae’s signature sultry vocals, Nasty Nick’s psychedelic-infused guitar solos, and Pedal Steel Pete’s 70’s inspired licks, this is a live band not to be missed.

Their debut record, Sighs & Strength, is streaming everywhere now.

“Katie’s voice is unique & she sings as if her life depends on it. Every syllable is her truth. There’s an authentic vulnerability to her lyrics.”

Katie Mae describes her sound as interpretive country & alt-western music, though she first took to a stage as the vocalist for a local punk band. The transition in style is anything but jarring - considering the share values of honesty, authenticity, and vulnerability.

“My favorite performers are those who seem to be entranced in their own hypnotic spell. They transcend deep into altered states of consciousness & invite you along for the ride. Katie Mae is one of those performers.” -R.W. Tudor, Anything But Mainstream Records
