Kansas-born country artist Katie Jo brings a Midwestern sensibility to melodies that dance in defeat of life’s plainest realities. Her debut album, Pawn Shop Queen, cut rights to the dark heart of country music: infidelity, religion, depression. The 9-song collection offers up succinct yet racous, sweet yet road-weary tales of a woman who’s had her heart broken more than once but still stands strong. A torchbearer for stars like Patty Loveless, Loretta Lynn, and Tammy Wynette, Katie Jo shakes up expectations of what a female country artist can and should sing about.
A feisty live performer, Katie Jo has shared the stage with legends like Willie Nelson and Billy Joe Shaver and contemporary stars like Charley Crockett, Sunny Sweeney, Flatland Calvary, Jaime Wyatt, and others.
