Katie Wood Shares Debut Single ‘Steve’
London-based singer and songwriter has just unveiled her debut single Steve, a captivating piece of indie-pop music about finding your inner power and realising your self-worth.
I am really enjoying her passionate vocal delivery and how her sweet, and somewhat raspy, vocals flow over an infectious pop/rock production packed with groovy guitar riffs, punchy drums and an overall 80's atmosphere reminiscent of acts such as Kate Bush and Tears For Fears. I am also enjoying the subtle touches of bells and chimes that add a cool texture to driving electric guitar-based melodies. I am also enjoying how the chorus is perfect to sing along to and I think you guys will enjoy this gem as well. If you're into infectious pieces of pop music with soaring guitars, lush vocals and an overall 80's romantic pop/rock atmosphere, then you'll love Steve. Check it out below!

Speaking about the song, Katie Wood said,
I wrote ‘Steve’ when I was in the shower—I had the hook ‘I’m losing control’ and I accidentally sung the name Steve. As soon as that happened I knew what the song would be about. The whole sound pretty much came together in my head, I had spent a lot of last year learning how to produce, so I just decided to make something sound exactly how I would want to hear it.”
I’m a big fan of sci-fi and fantasy movies, especially the older stuff—Labyrinth starring David Bowie is my favourite—so I wanted to reference that in the video, with the idea that I was gradually regaining power throughout.
