BIO:
Katie Jo and her self-proclaimed band of Honky Tonk Dorks hail from Waterloo, Iowa. Known for Katie’s awe-inspiring vocal talent, storytelling, live performances, and dedication to the classic country sound. Katie and the Honky Tonks have toured with Emily Nenni, opened for Ian Munsick at Xtream Arena, and played numerous country music festivals. They’ve also shared the stage with notable artists like Dale Watson, Josh Turner, and Jon Pardi.
Their debut album, Ain’t No Shame, is set to be released on June 27th, 2025, and builds on the success of their 2024 EP, Two-Steppin’ in the Shower, which solidified their place in the Midwest country music scene. The EP earned widespread recognition, with Iowa Public Radio saying, “The EP sounds more like Nashville 1964, not Nashville 2024.” It also earned them a nomination for Best Country Artist at the 2024 Iowa Music Awards.
Travis Feutz
Growing up on a farm Travis saw firsthand what the genre of country music was all about. Witnessing hard work, struggle, pain, love, loss, family, and faith all helped shape him into the artist he is today. Like his heroes that have come before him, Travis seeks honesty and sincerity in his music. His songs are like stories being passed down from one generation to another. His voice and style is raw and unique, but you’ll swear you’ve heard him before in some smoke filled honky tonk on a Saturday night. Through his Missouri upbringing and Nashville teaching Travis is doing his damndest to keep the tradition of country music alive. Catch Travis and his band The Stardust Cowboys live. It’s truly an experience.
Building on the momentum, 2025 looks to be a big year for Travis Feutz and The Stardust Cowboys. The boys have been working hard in the studio over the past few months and have a brand new single releasing in March titled, “Outlaws & Armadillos. This song is a hat tip to 70’s Country Music that came out of the Austin, Texas area during the reign of the Armadillo World Headquarters. This song is a lot of fun. If it doesn’t get folks out on the dancefloor we don’t know what will. The band also has a full album titled, Country Gold waiting in the wings that will release later in 2025. This work was a labor of love. Travis wanted to create an album of traditional country songs and have many of his favorite players on the project. He wanted to make an album that took people back to when country music was truly solid gold.
