Katie Gray

With a life that began in Washington DC, then Michigan, Washington State, California and England, Katie Gray has recently settled and found her roots here in Austin, Texas.



After spending 4 years performing as an actress in the entertainment industry in Los Angeles (TV: ‘Friends’, ‘Buffy’, ‘Sabrina the Teenage Witch’), she began her musical path in 2004.



It was then that she moved from the city back home to her family and lived with them on an island off the coast of Seattle called Orcas Island. It was there on the island that she picked up the guitar and began her path of songwriting and performing.



Having built most of her fan base from licensing songs off of her album ‘From Far Away’ (FOX’s ‘Bones’ featured her song ‘Set Free’ and iTunes chose her as one of their spotlight independent artists, giving away 250,000 mp3s of her song ‘Set Free’) it was only recently that live performance has become her focus. With the help of Kurt Baumann (Kan’Nal, Freeland & The Burned) on Guitar and Norm Bergeron (an eclectic professor of music, trained in world percussion) on drums, The Katie Gray Band is making waves
