A young country musician who ditched PE for music lessons at school has said she wants to bring country music to a new generation.
Katie Belle is a 22 year old singer-songwriter from Wigan. She has had a strong interest in music since a young age, but it has been her time at Liverpool Music Academy that has given her invaluable knowledge of the industry.
Katie said: “I've always been interested in music. At school, I was ditching PE to do music. It was only when I got to LMA that I realised that you can release music without being signed to a label, which really motivated me then to just get stuff out there and get my name out there.”
