This is NOT katie!
Katie has been deputising on drums, bass and vocals since she was 14 years old and regularly works with a variety of top local and national UK bands. Katie's success is built on a solid reputation - she learns fast and is one of the most punctual and easy going musicians you'll ever meet.

Katie's studio career began six years ago, when she was invited to play bass on a friend's material. Since then she has had regular studio work, including drum, guitar and vocal sessions.

Here's some comments from people who have worked with Katie:

'What can I say? I hire Katie because I get a sound and feel that only she knows how to create. Honest, personal, emotive and full of soul, an amazing musician' - Ian, Breath of Life Project

'Katie has such a unique sound and an incredible feel for the music. A fantastically gifted drummer and a great person to work with, I rank her amoungst the best around' - Anita Jones

'Katie Marie has such a love for what she does and you can hear that in her bass playing. When you hire Katie, you get some-one with a unique sound and soul that's so rare to find these days, plus she's so easy to work with and incredibly reliable.' - Brian Tially

'This gal picks things up quick! I needed a drummer to play over some tracks I'd recorded and I couldn't beleive how versatile, soulful and flexible Katie Marie was. Fantastic person to work with, and a wicked sense of humour!' - Lenny Grey-Wright
