Drawing inspiration from artists such as: Billie Holiday, Feist, Tom Waits and The Talking Heads; Sachs' music is an interesting blend of Jazz, Indie Rock and New Wave that manifest in songs ranging from poppy crowd pleasers to sultry ballads.

Whether you catch one of her solo acts, playing out with her band The Organelles, or leading a workshop on songwriting, you are bound to have your heart cracked open by this blossoming young talent.

"I was shopping for peaches at a farmers market and heard the low thrum of a baritone ukulele and a voice somewhere between Billie Holiday and David Byrne. It was Katie Sachs. Delicious melodies. Juicy lyrics." -Monte Belmonte, 93.9 The River

“Sachs’ voice has a deliciously pure tone, and a calculated warble that displays a creamy melodic integrity.” -Tom Sturm, The Valley Advocate
