Catie Turner
“The intimate directness of her voice suggests wisdom beyond her years.” -Time Magazine
“The intimate directness of her voice suggests wisdom beyond her years.”
— TIME Magazine
Catie Turner is a Philadelphia-born and Los Angeles-based songstress who sprinkles glowing melodies over cathartic indie pop. Turner processes trauma, growing up, getting ghosted, embracing awkwardness, and living life in real-time through disarmingly confessional lyrics and nuanced songcraft in her four EPs — The Sad Vegan (2019), Heartbroken and Milking It (2021), Comedy & Tragedy Parts 1 & 2 (2023).
She first debuted on American Idol season 16 as the first artist to ever audition with an original song, and her strength as a writer and performer was immediately apparent. Her breakout hit “God Must Hate Me” has over 75 million streams and counting.
Along the way, she’s also incited the applause of TIME, Billboard, V Magazine, and American Songwriter. Her music is like the best and most honest psychotherapy session you’ve ever had — but on a merry-go-round.
Planette Automatic
Planette Automatic is an art rock band from Philadelphia led by songwriter and poet Katie Hackett.
Their dreamy melodic writing style emerged after Katie escaped a Christian cult and moved east, where she began making up for lost time and expressing her younger self in verse and song.
Shortly after arriving in Philly, she began collaborating with her current band mates: bassist Sam Nobles from the Delaware band Mean Lady, drummer Adam Shumski, and guitarist Dan Ryan from the NYC band BODEGA.
Hackett has also scored for film, having been featured at the London International Animation Festival, Viet Film Fest, and MAM Festival. The band’s songs have been featured on comedian Chris Gethard’s New Jersey is the World, MTV’s Teen Mom, and Teen Mom 2.
The band, known for its unique blend of pensive piano ballads and raw indie rock, has released two albums (“Herodias” in 2017 and “Katie Bird” in 2020) and is in the process of a third.
(formerly The Lunar Year)
Chioke
Cinematic and ethereal, Chioke’s alternative R&B blends psychedelic production with poetic storytelling shaped by her Philadelphia roots. Starting on SoundCloud in 2017 with her late best friend and producer, Jay Dreamer, Chioke’s music honors his legacy. Her 2024 debut at the legendary Roots Picnic marked a career milestone, shortly followed by the birth of her twin sons, a life-changing experience that deepened her artistry. With her soulful sound and emotional depth, Chioke remains a testament to resilience and evolution.
