A lifelong steward of the craft of songwriting, Katie Morey (née Preston) grew up on the banks of Lake Ontario and currently resides in Rochester. She and her past projects such as Paul’s Grandfather and Pleistocene have shared bills with artists such as Cursive, Japanese Breakfast, Vagabon, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Brand New, and Screaming Females. Morey’s newest release, an LP titled Friend of a Friend, came out in March 2022. One reviewer said it “showcases the singer’s crystalline vocals, thoughtful lyricism, and sonic arrangements.” https://bandcamp.com/katiemorey
