My new record JUST MOVE ON is being released on Berkalin Records June 24, 2016, and it's already being received well in the press!
Texas Monthly debuted my song "Back to Houston" in its Music Monday Feature, which makes this native Texan a happy cowgirl! Dan Solomon says "she sings her story with a little twang, some slide guitar, and a lot of heart."
Mike Seely of No Depression writes, "Koch produces songs which are are warm, vulnerable and relatable, like a bowl of gumbo and a mug of Shiner Bock at the end of a hard, rainy day. Her music makes you want to persevere on the off chance that the new morning might yield an unexpected creation. Such moments can be fleeting, but there are none as rewarding."
Chris Gray of The Houston Press says Just Move On is "the kind of crisp but classic country-pop that has all but vanished from Nashville but guarantees the album a welcome spot in the libraries of any Rosanne Cash, Mary Chapin Carpenter or Patty Loveless fan. That said, fans who prefer their country music come from a dance hall rather than a coffeehouse will be rewarded handsomely with “You Don’t Live Here Anymore,” “Bring You Down” and “I’ve Been Blind” as well."
Chris also interviewed me for a full length feature in the Houston Press, which you can read HERE. We talked about the making of the record, the writing of the songs, and some of the challenges for female artists (and male artists too) in today's Texas and Country music scenes.
