Katie Knipp at Swabbies Restaurant & Bar – Sacramento, CA

About Katie Knipp:

Top 10 Billboard Blues Artist and 2X SAMMIE Award winner!

“If Beck had a bluesy, genre-bending sister, it would be Katie Knipp”- Colin Campbell, Blues Matters Magazine, UK. October 24th 2025 finds Knipp releasing her 9th album, Dance Me, an electronica remix album produced by Pancho Tomaselli, based off of her fourth top ten Billboard charting album, Me. Similar to the likes of Tom Waits, Kate Bush, and St. Vincent, she celebrates eclecticism and genre-fluid creativity. 2024’s Me brought Knipp’s hard-fought personal and musical self awareness to the forefront of the contemporary Blues landscape. From sultry to social justice, Katie Knipp dives all the way in, teaming her refreshing vulnerability with expert level musicality and composition. Knipp’s unique euphony and passionate storytelling has propelled her career to new heights, independently paving new ground. Alongside Katie on vocals, piano, and guitar, her band features musical director and producer Pancho Tomaselli on bass (War, Tower of Power, Philm), Steve Utstein on the B3 (Cafe R and B, Bo Diddley, Junior Wells, Lonnie Brooks), Brandon Au (trombone) and Justin Au (trumpet), and Neil Campisano on drums (4 top 10 Billboard albums).
