just so tired of the drama... get over it, mama

About Me

Abandoned in the Appalachian mountains as a baby by impoverished Irish immigrant parents, Katie was raised by wolves until the age of 8. Despite her unconventional rearing, Katie blossomed into a young debutant once rescued by a fine middle-class family. But upon realizing that tea-length dresses made her legs look funny, she bought a guitar and learned to sing and decided to devote herself to a life of starving artistry. Several broken strings later, schooling seemed the best option... Katie has earned her degree from McNally Smith College in Songwriting and Music Business and is currently living as a slave to white-collar pirates and a miniature human. Ever unphased, she has intricate plans to mutiny with the bands Parts for all Makes and SKIRT .
