Hailing from Nashville, TN, De La Torre is an folkronica / electro-pop group fronted by charismatic vocalist Katie De La Torre.

Katie is a natural: she's been into performing arts - particularly singing and writing songs - since the tender age of 5, when she displayed a fondness for being under the spotlights, entertaining people and unleashing her creative and expressive potential through her music.

Eventually, music became so much more than just a child's delight: Katie got involved within the lively local artistic community and set out to refine her song-writer and performing skills.

De La Torre plays a unique blend of rock, with shades of alternative, pop and folk, echoing masters the likes of Fleetwood Mac, as well as recent indie heroes such as The Alabama Shakes and tasteful modern pop music icons the likes of Adele, or Taylor Swift.

De La Torre strikes for a very diverse and dynamic sound where darkness and bright colors collide in a charming and appealing way - with only a few, well arranged elements, such as the warmth and organic feel of the acoustic guitars to provide a compelling frame for Katie's emotional and heartfelt vocal performances.

There is a very old saying circulating within music circles: "less is more". A little bit of something truly great makes for really outstanding outcomes, especially when it comes to creating songs that are meant to last…. Because, at the end of the day, the spirit is everything that truly matters.

Sometimes, you do not need to over-work a tune with lots of ornaments and over-produced tracks in order to “fatten up” the sound- sometimes everything you need is a honest singer with something to say… and with her own special way of saying it.

De La Torre is currently working on an upcoming EP, to be release in Spring 2014.
