Bittersweet angst and optimism weave through Katelyn Convery’s music, piercing the frontier of modern alt-rock, and harkening back to the edgy era of 90s NW grunge, with textures characteristic of early 2000s indie-pop. Alluring melodies, compelling arrangements, and perceptive, unapologetic lyrics land as a ferocious, buttery roar.
The result: something altogether timeless and new. And getting noticed.
Convery’s latest album Miles Awake boasts polished lyrics and sophisticated soundscapes, backed by a group of distinguished musicians and co-produced with bandmate and collaborator Timothy Karplus. The music encompasses life’s diverse experiences, joyous and challenging. While songs like Goddamn Disaster and Extraordinary Love deliver a powerful emotional punch, Convery still leaves room for sensuality and tenderness in songs like Look Out Below and Let’s Run Away. Themes of bravery and self-preservation resonate throughout.
Despite roadblocks and limitations, Convery’s dedication to music has prevailed and her story is shared throughout her work. Born and raised in Portland, OR, Katelyn graduated from U of O with a degree in journalism in 2007 then spent eight years living abroad. She now splits time between Portland and the Oregon Coast. Katelyn plays all over the world and continues to gain appreciators of her music with each live show.
