I feel a lot of things
And then I write songs bc I am feeling a lot of things to help with the feelings
And then I sing them on stage but sometimes it brings up a lot of feelings
So if you feel feelings like I feel feelings
then we could probably be friends
And I invite your feelings like I am inviting my own feelings right now

Come sing with Katie or hear her play live. If you want to book Katie, contact: katiesontagmusic@gmail.com

“Sontag’s music seeks to move listeners to examine the deepest part of themselves” - Matthew Denis
“Sontag [...] has taken some of her frustrations with motherhood and turned them into songs. Some of them had the audience laughing out loud [...] Sontag’s music has been described as “transcendental indie folk,” but it’s difficult to put a label on it. The band constantly mixes up the mood and the tempo, never leaving the listener bored. While some songs are funny (“How Can I Miss You If You Won’t Go Away?”) others are so deep, so meaningful to her” - Ron Hartman

"Even when depression is numbing my emotions, Katie's hauntingly vulnerable music can stir up deep feelings--the exquisite pain of heartbreak, the warmth of a loved one's hug, the awe of a starry night. I'm always excited to attend her song circles, where she gently and encouragingly guides singers of all levels into sweet and beautiful harmonies, fostering feelings of joy and fellowship."
~ Yosef, Portland OR ~
"Such sweet, soulful, heart lifting, tender, funny, brilliant lyrical wonderfulness....all wrapped up in a delightfully refreshing voice! Katie Sontag’s songwriting will touch your heart, make you laugh, inspire tears, have you singing along, make you feel like you truly belong! And of course, you do!"
~ Cathy Baker, Choir Director, Victoria,BC ~
Yesterday I was in line, waiting to check out at Grocery Outlet. The woman in front of me was talking to the cashier saying, “Yesterday I listened to some music and it changed my mood and my entire day.” I always love to hear about music that inspires people and asked her who she was listening to, expecting something mainstream. When she said Katie Sontag, we had a shared moment of love and appreciation for Katie's music! Not only is her music helping to shift and uplift people’s lives, she is also bringing people together out in the community. ~Tikka Bee, Eugene, OR~
“Katie Sontag has a passionate personality. She doesn’t believe in doing anything halfway when she finds something that really strikes her fancy. Take her band, for instance. KT & The Love Notes is all about love – the good, bad and the ugly aspects of it. It also includes the love of a baby, the love of our neighbors, the love of society.” - Ron Hartman
