Nashville-based singer/songwriter Katie Boeck has cultivated a dynamic and multifaceted career. A graduate of UCLA's Department of Theater, Katie first gained recognition as a guitar-slinging actress in Los Angeles, a journey that led to her breakout role as the Voice of Wendla in the acclaimed Broadway revival of Spring Awakening by Deaf West Theatre. The production earned a 2016 Tony nomination for Best Revival of a Musical and brought Katie to national attention, including an appearance on NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt.
In 2021, Katie paid homage to Joni Mitchell with a celebrated tribute tour, performing the entirety of Blue in venues across the U.S. Her music has made its mark on screen, with her acoustic rendition of “Ave Maria” featured in HBO’s The Newsroom and her cover of “The Sign” showcased on CBS’s Love Island.
Her 2023 album Calico earned praise as "beautiful, restrained folk" (Black Plastic), further establishing her as a distinct voice in contemporary music. A winner of the prestigious Kerrville New Folk songwriting competition, her journey as a musician has taken her to a wide range of stages, from intimate gatherings to renowned venues like Carnegie Hall and even the Navy Ball in Mumbai, India.

Her last two albums “Love I Swore” produced by Kim Richey, and “Rocket Rearview” Produced by Dave Coleman are on Jim Hyne’s “Best of the Year In Roots Music” list.

Through this myriad of Amelia White’s emotions she is gritty, tender, true, and unerringly on target.” Jim Hynes
