New sINGLE “DUST” Available Everywhere August 15th
Katie Boeck is a Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and storyteller crafting emotionally resonant music that sits at the intersection of contemporary folk, Americana, and soul. Her latest single, “Dust,” was recorded live-to-tape with Eau Claire, Wisconsin–based producer Shane Leonard (Anna Tivel, Humbird) and marks a confident next step in Boeck’s evolution.
A 2023 Kerrville New Folk winner and two-time Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriter Showcase finalist, Boeck is gaining recognition as one of the standout voices in today’s independent folk scene. Her 2023 album Calico was named Best Singer-Songwriter Album of the Year by the Indie Acoustic Project and has garnered praise from outlets like Atwood Magazine, Folk N Rock, and Music Mecca, who called her work both “timeless” and “transcendent.”
Originally from California with deep roots in Central Montana, Boeck studied theater at UCLA before starring as the Voice of Wendla in the Tony-nominated Broadway revival of Spring Awakening. Her work has also been featured on HBO’s The Newsroom and Netflix’s Love Island, and during the pandemic, she toured a live reinterpretation of Joni Mitchell’s Blue—a project that honored one of her musical lodestars while reawakening her own creative voice.
Now based in Nashville, Boeck continues to hone her craft through residencies like Blue Rock and Arts Incubator Ranch (A.I.R), and through regular collaborations with top-tier musicians and producers. Her work has been described as “a siren’s song of enchantment” (Music Mecca) and “beautiful, restrained folk” (Black Plastic), drawing comparisons to folk-pop trailblazers Jonatha Brooke and Shawn Colvin.
With new music on the way and growing industry momentum, Katie Boeck is an artist to watch—bringing soul, vulnerability, and a distinctly feminine perspective to the contemporary Americana landscape. She has played Electric Forest Festival, Mile of Music, the Cutting Room, City Winery and Carnegie Hall. Boeck now lives in Nashville with her 8-year-old son. “Boeck sings with a plaintive passion.” – NEW YORK TIMES
