Katie Herzig: camouflaged behind the mask of the versatility


Still can not get clear in my mind when I discovered Katie Herzig. I think it was the middle of last year, when I overheard Trent Dabbs was to share the stage with her at some point. I then did not pay much attention to this jovial blonde, but soon the fate I would intensely enjoy "The Waking Sleep", the fourth studio album by the beautiful singer from Fort Collins (Colorado).

I love the sweet and stylish texture of his compositions, and noise factor that makes the songs is expanded and shrinking with each passing minute. There are many things I love about his work, but above all things that I prefer stylistic versatility takes Katie to be in a different plane from other artists supposedly close. A Madi Diaz recalls moments in others, however, Fiona Apple ("Closest I Get").Until there is some Oh Land and Dia Frampton (Meg & Dia) in them!. The definition in the stem of his sound is so unique that it is hard to find similes beyond a 20 to 25% of what we can find in his latest LP.

This last stage is the period August perfect for "The Waking Sleep". The green leaves still preserve most authentic, but the atmosphere begins to sense a change coming to a more introspective, more melancholy. It is with such great songs as "Closest I Get ',' Make A Noise 'and' Lost & Found 'we breathe the chameleon nature of that point of the year. Now we just have to calm down, have your body in a relaxed and enjoy the ride. Because with Katie traveling with the mind, not the body.
