With her kaleidoscopic sound and intricate lyrics, Katie Rugg’s music weaves vivid tapestries filled with vibrant colours. She taught herself to play guitar because she wanted to play and sing the music of the Beatles. This led her down a path to writing her own music. Storytelling is at the heart of Katie Rugg’s songwriting. Each song is a chance to play a new character and bring her audience deeper into her world of technicolour and mystery. She has one single out, titled Someone Tell Daniel, a gritty rock song about self-destruction. She is currently working on her debut album. She regularly gigs around Boston and will announce new dates soon. From high-energy psych-rock anthems to somber folk ballads, Katie Rugg will have you laughing, crying, and dancing until the sun comes up.
