Katy Mckenzie

Katy Mckenzie is talented as she is tall, standing at a statuesque 5’10”. She’s a gifted singer/songwriter with a penchant for clever and catchy lyrics. She has a fresh, sweet yet sultry, country/pop sound with a dash of folk. She’s young at heart, but with an old soul; some of her musical influences include The Eagles, Bob Dylan, James Taylor as well as Miranda Lambert, Kasey Musgraves and Taylor Swift.

With a slew of catchy and crowd pleasing original songs written, Katy is in the studio working on her first EP. If you're fortunate enough to catch a live performance, you will find yourself singing along in anthem to her signature original song “Freedom” or sitting back enjoying her pleasantly sweet and smooth vocals, unforgettable melodies and lyrics; and singing them long after you have gone home.
Katy is just getting started and has already performed at the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts at the official 2015 San Antonio Fiesta Poster Unveiling and at the 2015 San Antonio Mayoral Inauguration Ceremonies as well as the the legendary local concert venue, The White Rabbit. Katy also performed at the SA Fiesta event, The 2015 Deco District Arts and Music Festival Medal Unveiling. It was there that Katy was honored to receive a new Gibson Epiphone guitar presented to her by Gibson Guitars Executives.
In addition to local venues like The Cove, Katy has performed at major festivals such as the Frenchie Burke Music Festival in Lytle, Texas and St. Louis Day Festival in Castroville, Texas where thousands flock to each year. She performed on the Miller Lite stage at the 2015 San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, The 5th Annual Barbacoa and Big Red Festival, the 2015 San Antonio Fiesta Oyster Bake and Deco District Arts and Music Festival.
Having trained with a few notable musicians including Grammy award winner Michael Morales, there’s no doubt that many more opportunities and success lie ahead for this talented artist. Big dreams, aspirations, passion and a heart and soul for music drive Katy to continue to work hard on her craft, write songs and perform anywhere she can. - San Antonio Monthly Magazine
