No one I’d rather have in the studio when the gremlins are taking over than Katy Vernon. Katy is a consummate professional with a sunny disposition. It was especially fun to have her talk about her latest venture, Favourite Girl, a mostly female fronter band with: Katy Vernon on Ukulele/Vocals, Daisy Forester on Bass, Alyse Emanuel on Drums/Vocals, Allie Pikala on Lead Guitar/Vocals and Paul Odegaard on Trumpet. You can catch them live at the Aster Café on January 3, 2025 for the single release (Not Going Back) with Katy Tessman. This is a welcome rocking sound to Katy!
