Making music which feels raw and resonates emotionally, indie rock singer-songwriter Katie Malco made a splash five years ago with debut offering Failures, an album which reflected on her teenage years and early 20s. 
“The [album’s] tunes represent a time where I wasn’t my best self or wasn’t behaving acceptably,” she told beatsperminute.com. “I named it Failures in a pit of doom. I was looking back and thinking that all these things are times I’ve f***ed up, basically.” Five years on, it’s to be hoped that Katie is feeling somewhat more positive about herself. And well she might - with a fast-growing fanbase, and having received plenty of enthusiastic encouragement from within the music industry, she’s carefully carving out a unique space in the indie rock landscape.
