Bringing amazing people in Nashville to focus for a one on one. People related to the industry that stand out and are true champions that represent all the positives, for both the audience they entertain, people they work with, managers and music executives they work for. They impart an amazing presence and make this world a better and fun place to live in.
The Spotlight is on a talented up and coming Pop artist who hails and calls Kansas City her hometown, better known for the amazing fountains, succulent tangy BBQ, and Kansas City Jazz. Who knew that a Pop artist would ascend from these humble roots. I affectionately refer to as my sweet friend, Katie. When first meeting Katie, you would never have guessed she has a stage alter ego, like Linda Carter to Wonder Woman. Katie is sweet, cordial, charming, and polite. But put her on stage and she becomes the life of the party, a free spirited bad-ass Vixen with a voice who comes to entertain the masses and demands your attention as The Pretty Pink Haired Princess of Pop, professionally known as Katie MAC!

Ladies and gentlemen, fun seekers alike, I present to you, Katie MAC!
