Clear-eyed and tough-minded, songwriter/playwright Katie Dahl is known for her smart songs, wry wit, and wise spirit. A small-town celebrity on the Wisconsin peninsula where her family has lived for 175 years, Katie is also an internationally touring, radio-charting artist who “delivers razor-sharp lyrics with a hearty, soulful voice” (American Songwriter). In live shows that are both courageously honest and devilishly funny, Katie dives deep into questions of land and love, family and body image, grief and joy. “In unsettled times,” says Peter Mulvey, “Katie Dahl brings us a grounded spirit.”
Katie’s five albums of original songs showcase her creamy alto, abiding love of the land, and trademark humor, as well as her unflinching vulnerability. Her recent work finds her exploring deeper territory than ever before, from anxiety to body image to the challenges of growing up queer in an evangelical church. Richly steeped in the American songwriting tradition, Katie navigates the muddy waters between the personal, public, and political with tenderness and dexterity.
Julie Wolf is a music producer, multi-instrumentalist, composer, music director and educator. She is part of a vibrant, far-flung creative community that includes musicians, composers, recording engineers & mixers, playwrights, directors, actors, dancers, choreographers, poets, filmmakers, activists, educators and rascals.
Over the last 30+ years, Julie has performed on hundreds of critically acclaimed recordings, toured internationally, appeared at music venues and on festival stages around the world and played on national television and radio programs including Late Night with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Show with Conan O’Brian, Late Night with David Letterman, The View, VH1 Hard Rock Live, Sessions at West 45th Street, Australia’s Studio 22, NPR’s Mountain Stage and E-Town. She has collaborated with Ani DiFranco, Carly Simon, Maceo Parker, Indigo Girls, Bruce Cockburn, Jill Sobule, Joan Baez, Dar Williams, Eliza Gilkyson, John McCutcheon, Cris Williamson, Allison Miller, Wayne Horvitz, Robin Holcomb, Todd Sickafoose, Jenny Scheinman and bunch of other amazing musicians.
