PRESENTED BY LAYLA ANNA-LEE
Katie and Si first got together on the other side when they decided to meet up in this lifetime to collaborate creatively. At this present moment, they have an acoustic duo that ties in the divine efforts of Si's songwriting, and Katie's inspired vocal endeavours. Both Katie and Si have found themselves all over the world with music and adventure. Si is an accomplished singer-songwriter (toured the UK, including King Tuts, The London Garage, Liverpool Barfly, Manchester Roadhouse, The Exchange Edinburgh/ Enjoyed airplay and features on Radio1, Beat 106, XFM, Storm Radio, Wire FM/ Appeared in Kerrang, NME, The Scotsman, Edinburgh Evening News, The List/ Supported The Stranglers, Rooster, Speedway, Grim Northern Social, 4 Star Mary/ Played the unsigned showcase for MTV Europe Music Awards.) Katie comes to us from Canada where she grew up running around forests, singing "The Hills are Alive" which led to music theatre study and performance. Post an intense education at Sheridan Institute's Music Theatre Performance Program, she toured the globe for a year as a lead singer with Royal Caribbean International, before landing in London to explore the music scene and whatever life had to offer. Katie and Si don't subscribe to the phrase "too much of a good thing" and the good thing here is the honesty and joy with which they approach their lives and work. Have a listen!
