Katie Henry is a force of nature in the blues-rock world—a multi-instrumentalist whose soulful vocals and sharp songwriting feel both timeless and refreshingly modern. While her rise on the international stage seems like a whirlwind, her journey is rooted in a refusal to stand still—defined by a constant, intentional push toward the next creative horizon.

A proud artist on the prestigious Ruf Records roster, Katie has quickly built a formidable discography. Her 2022 label debut, On My Way, skyrocketed to the Top 10 of the Billboard Blues Chart, while her latest release, Get Goin’ (2024)—produced by blues titan Bernard Allison—showcases a "runaway talent" (Classic Rock Magazine) at the peak of her powers. Whether she’s slinging her rare blue Mustang guitar or commanding the keys, Katie’s live show is an alchemical blend of New Jersey soul and New York City grit.

Having shared the stage with icons like John Mayall, Molly Tuttle, and Sister Sparrow, and fresh off the massive Ruf Records 30th Anniversary Tour, Katie is now captivating audiences on her own terms. Her recent headline tour of Europe solidified what fans already knew: Katie Henry is not just a rising star, but a definitive voice in the future of American roots music.

The Atlanta Rhythm Section... ARS... In the annals of rock and roll, where do they fit? They put out 15 albums of excellent original material, and consistently put on entertaining live shows-both of which helped establish a broad if not huge fan base. They had some big hits and have been a major player in the Southern Rock scene. But is that the whole story? In some circles, maybe. But for those who've really gotten to know their music over the years, there's a lot more to the story.

ARS was paired with contemporaries Lynyrd Skynyrd as the successors to the Allman Brothers - carrying the mantle of "Southern Rock" in the late 70s. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, it may have made sense at the time. But performing songs that were more musically diverse and having hits that had a softer, pop sound, the "Southern Rock" label was a mixed blessing and many of their unique musical accomplishments became lost in a genre that has lived on to this day-but never really fit ARS.

They weren't out to be rock and roll stars - they were accomplished studio musicians working as a group. They were said to be more influenced by music coming out of England than other music in the South. They shared musical stylings with the Eagles and Fleetwood Mac - both in the quality of songwriting and recorded performances. They were excellent musicians who tried to stretch themselves - think Steely Dan or Little Feat. In many ways, these associations make as much or more sense than any grouping with their Southern Rock kindred.

But the music of ARS only reached a mass audience on a couple of occasions. The result: an outstanding song catalog and the talented men responsible for it have been largely overlooked. When those songs are heard, and those talents recognized, the case can be made that ARS are the epitome of all the good things that the phrase "classic rock" implies.
