Hey guys! Im Katie Dietz and I'm a solo gigging musician based in Naples, Florida. I play acoustic performances all across southwest Florida and I specialize in many genres including rock, country, and indie music, all from different decades. I really enjoy playing older music, but my songwriting is reminiscent of the late 90's and early 00's. My biggest inspiration for melody is John Mayer, Steely Dan for concept, and Twenty One Pilots for songwriting. (weird combo, I know).
​
I left my hometown of Glen Allen, Virginia in 2017 alongside my dad, stepmom, little brother and sister, to move to Naples, Florida. My mom stayed behind in Virginia and passed away almost a year after I left. She was my best friend, but without feeling the pain I felt, I don't think I'd be as strong as I am today. She taught me to love my neighbors, and my attempt at that is by sharing music with others.
​
My debut EP with Darrell Nutt of DEF Media Studios is so very special to me as it has a moody tone that feels relatable to many people. Give it a listen if you want!
