KATIE GRACE BAND Headlines a Concert at Small's!

Detroit's best bad girl, Katie Grace will play her first headlining show at Small's Bar on Saturday, July 7 at 9 pm. Opening the show is fellow songwriter Matt Dmits, who is also a member of the Inside Outlaw collective.

Americana singer-songwriter Katie Grace has kept busy since the February release of her debut album, "Best Bad Girl." The band has been playing locally and touring regionally in support of the album. The album has been receiving airplay on Americana and country radio stations nationwide and garnering favorable reviews from the music press.

The website Country California proclaimed that her song "Can't Save Them All," is "A touch of graceful country-soul from Detroit’s fertile music underground." Metro Times music scribe Brett Callwood wrote, "Katie Grace has finally put out a solo record, and Best Bad Girl (Inside Outlaws Detroit) is magnificent. The sound is certainly alt-country, but it is also smooth and radio-friendly."

Opening the show is singer-songwriter Matt Dmits and his band who recently released his debut E.P. "Bury Me With My Guitar." The two fellow Inside Outlaws also collaborate on songs together.

Small's Bar is located at 10339 Conant in Hamtramck - (313) 873-1117, www.smallsbardetroit.com. Patrons 21 & over, cover $6; under 21 cover is $10.
