Katie Armiger's powerful vocals and skillful songwriting are clearly showcased on her new music. At the ripe age of 20, Katie does not hold back and has an inspiring combination of determination and passion that shines through in her music.

The 20-year-old singer-songwriter has accomplished more during her four years as a recording artist than most people twice her age. Her previous single, "Kiss Me Now," the flirtatious ode to new love she co-wrote with Sarah Buxton and Blair Daly, was her second to hit the Top 40 on the Billboard Indicator Chart, while "Trail of Lies" landed in the Top 20 on Music Row, setting a record as the Highest Charting Independent Female Artist in 2009. The dream of making it on Music Row seemed fated for the Texas native with the soaring voice and radiant personality. At the age of 10, Katie discovered a talent for arranging her thoughts and feelings into writing songs and poetry. When she was 14, she entered Houston's Best Country Singer competition sponsored by Radio 93Q Country and took home the grand prize and a shot at recording a two-song demo, which developed into her self-titled debut album.

Katie Armiger has just scratched the surface of what she is capable of. She is a passionate and driven performer well beyond her years.

Break of Reality“...plays with genuine technique but rocks out like it means it.” - Time Out New York

Break of Reality is an American cello quartet based in New York. Formed at the Eastman School of Music in 2003, the band is filling concert venues around the country with fans eager to hear “cello rock”. Their sound is cinematic, subdued and heavy all at once, and their live audiences are equally diverse; fans of Led Zeppelin, Radiohead, and Yo-Yo Ma are finally getting acquainted.

Although they are simply four voices, Tonic Sol-Fa has spent the past decade on the road carving their niche as the nation’s top vocal group. In that time, this quartet has been named one of the top five “must see” groups in America, has been awarded numerous original song and album awards in pop, gospel and holiday genres and appeared on NBC’s Today Show.

The New York Times describes Tonic Sol-fa’s sound as “A vocal kaleidoscope...unique to the human voice.” Nobody does it like Tonic Sol-fa.
