The Reviews are Coming in
New album "Live at Theater 5150" released 9/18/26 worldwide
"One of Blues' most adventurous and compelling performers" -Colin Campbell, Blues Matters Magazine, UK
"When a leading woman of this caliber manages to team up with such equally talented partners, you'd have to be deaf not to want more. Operate repeat!" -Patrick Dallongeville, Paris-Move
"Listening to the album, I could swear I felt the entire room rocking with Katie Knipp’s powerful performance. It’s raw, in the best sense." Greg Victor, Parcbench.live, New York
"Over two discs, she throws herself into it with theatrical gusto, her songs a gumbo of burlesque vamps, hip-swinging blues slink, foghorn-voiced rock’n’roll, and Cab Calloway-like piano-led Dixie jazz. She’s got it going on! Let’s hope she makes it over to the UK sometime." -Thomas H. Green, The Arts Desk, UK
"Katie Knipp has an undeniable allure. She is a presence, a power. The band seems to be summoning some elemental creature from deep within the earth's crust, calling it to rise, to dance, to do its bidding. And if you pay attention, you can hear the earth itself stirring." -Michael Doherty's Music Blog
"Knipp's unconventional vocal phrasing in her melodic music is bold, fearless....blues, art-rock, Off-Broadway cabaret, New Orleans piano, melodic rock are all there, and depending on your knowledge and background, you can hear many styles and influences." -Mindy Giles, Sacramento Blues Society
"...filled with great songs, adorned with excellent playing and that guttural voice that literally hits you right in the face. These songs show how Katie strongly reflects and projects all that blues feeling and actually just lays it at our feet." -Mike Loncar, Blues Corner, Croatia
"The most original artist I have ever hosted. Doesn't remind me of anyone else like most artists tend to do. Very creative brain." -Jon Neff, KFOK
"4.5/5 stars...raw and real...The band is dynamic as they follow Knipp from a whisper to a roar, and the music can get dark and deep one minute then jaunty and playful the next." -John Kereiff, The Rock Doctors Hot Wax Album Reviews, Canada
