2008 - Chocolate Moose Music Cafe		2010 - Beach Betty's. Dania Beach
In 2008 12 year old Katie met another young musician at a local music cafe known as the "Chocolate Moose" together they performed an old Hendrix classic "Hey Joe". Often asked back on open mic nights Katie began to work with older musicians such as Mike Blake, Igy, Len Perry, Cliff Wallach Greenberg and other's who continue to help her develop musically and teach her the importance of band dynamics. Quickly realizing she had a blues influence with her playing style Katie started seeking out others who shared similar interests in music. In just two short years Katie has grown with her music and never stops learning as shown in the video footage of Hey Joe in 2010. Check out both videos side by side and watch Katie jam then and NOW!
