"Katie sang and played at our drinks reception at our wedding. When we we searching for a pianist/singer as soon as we heard her voice we both loved it, very distinctive. She was a delight to deal with, nothing was a problem. Would highly recommend her."

Katie Wills Music - Pianist / Singer - East Kilbride, Scotland Event Location: Dundee for first recording and then virtual-ongoing work Event Type: Recording Work 2nd June 2020
I've been working with Katie on recording my songs for over a year now, and I'm very happy with the results. She has a beautiful and distinctive singing voice that really helps to make a song stand out. She's also easy to get along with, patient, attentive to what is being asked for, and able to come up with some good ideas of her own too. It's been a pleasure working with her and I fully intend to continue doing so.

Virtual Services Offer

Recording Work-Lyrics

I can provide lyrics and/or vocal and piano melodies for your track. If you have an instrumental that you need someone else to do either just the lyrics for or just vocals or piano or both-then I can provide that service. For the premium package, I can also add in some percussion, programmed instruments, basic guitar.

I can write lyrics from scratch if you would prefer it to be a blank canvas and I write about what I interpret the vibe of the song to be, or you can give me some sort of stimulus to work from. I tend to write lyrics using a lot of imagery and themes such as mental health and issues facing us today such as mental health, the environment/ and the impact humans have made, relationships-the good and the bad sides. But I can also write more upbeat lyrics if your track was more in line with vibes of positivity and feeling uplifted.

I pride myself on my ability to be as versatile as possible and can sing and adapt to any genre. See more videos etc from links below;

I studied drama/acting in high school and studied up to a Higher Advanced level. I studied Musical Theatre for a year with Motherwell College in Scotland and have also performed in a variety of shows, musicals and more. Although I have not pursued any further training and am currently a full time musician, I have worked on my accents over the years and feel that although not perfect, I am able to speak in those accents.

PLEASE NOTE-some of the accents are more generalised.

Online Gigs

If you're looking for live music but can only do so virtually-I am offering live streamed gigs via Zoom. This could be for background music, a small event, a birthday, care homes etc. I can do 30mins all the way up to 3 x 45s or 2 x 1hrs of either stripped back, relaxing sets with stripped back pop and rock, soul, jazz covers or a more lively set with some more uptempo songs, complete with some colourful lights. I can also pre-reocord these sets too.

Songwriting or Vocal Workshops

I can provide beginners songwriting workshops or even 1-2-1s covering the basics of songwriting, songwriting techniques, theory and how to craft the instrumental of a song too. I also cover incorporating techniques into lyrics such as emotions, imagery, sensory, similes and metaphors and more. I also like to include meditation sessions and feedback sessions into the workshops to try and help people relax, open their mind and become more mindful and in the present. Feedback sessions are always a great way for people to get feedback on their songs they've written so they know what they can improve and work upon.

With vocals, I can also teach group workshops and 1-2-1s from beginner up to advanced. I teach a variety of warm ups, technical warm ups, breathing techniques (similar to meditation), vocal techniques including the belt and anchor technique, melisma, onsets and offsets etc, how to vocal map songs and add dynamics, how to perform a song using facial expressions, body language, tone of voice, different genre techniques. I also can teach stagecraft, mic technique and more. I can also do feedback sessions and more.
