After the pandemic we have all suffered, not only the audience but also all musicians have come up again with more power and energy than ever. This is the case of Katie Knipp who comes back like a steamroller or, if you prefer, like a real whirlwind, sweeping the board of everything she finds in her way, something you will immediately realize listening to this album recorded live from the Green Room Social Club in Placerville, California.
With a voice that could sometimes remind Memphis Minnie’s one, Katie not only sings but also shows her most talented side playing keyboards, dobro and harmonica, this time backed by very intuitive musicians like Chris Martínez on guitar, Otis Mourning on percussion, clarinet and saxophones, Zak Proteau on bass and Neil Campisano on drums.
For that amazing show Katie chose a repertoire with own compositions, coming from her albums recorded from 2005 to the present. Twelve songs were selected from this repertoire, the ones that have been included in this new release, where she shows all her magnificent versatility and good taste, not exempt from a raw touch, besides the implied imagination you will find in her own compositions, without forgetting Katie’s intuitive talent. All these qualities come together to make Katie become a complete and reliable artist.
