About Me

About

Hi! My name is Katie Mourtgos. I’m a 22-year-old singer from Utah, and I sing slow, acoustic songs that are usually pretty emotional, raw, and a little sad. I actually started singing only a couple of years ago when some friends convinced me to audition for a college talent show. I never expected it to turn into something bigger, but since then I’ve been lucky to have amazing opportunities that keep pushing me to grow as an artist!

For me, music is more than just performing — it’s how I process emotions, quiet my racing thoughts, and share the most honest parts of myself. I draw a lot of inspiration from country, indie, folk, and singer-songwriter music, and I love creating songs that feel personal but also relatable for anyone listening.

Music has always been a big part of my life. I started piano at 8 years old and also play guitar and flute, but singing and songwriting have become my true passion.

I graduated from Utah State University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology, and that helped shape the way I write and connect with people through my music! Outside of music, I’m usually traveling (I try to take a trip almost every weekend), spending time outdoors, and being with the people I love.

At the end of the day, my biggest goal with music is to connect, to feel, and to inspire!

Piano lessons:

I’ve been playing piano for 14 years and have taught both children and adults for 5 years!Teaching piano has been one of the most fulfilling experiences for me. I love watching my students grow a real love for music and seeing their skills improve week after week!

I offer 30–45 minute lessons once a week, using the Piano Adventures series as a guide. That said, I’m always open to other lesson books or approaches! Lessons are tailored to each student’s level and goals, whether you’re just starting out or wanting to strengthen your skills.

At this time, I prefer to teach in students’ homes. If you’re interested, please reach out to me directly for pricing and availability!

Weddings and special events:

Music can make life’s most important moments even more meaningful, and I would love to be part of yours! I recently had the honor of singing at my friend’s wedding, and I knew right away that I wanted to offer this to more couples.

Whether you’re looking for a heartfelt cover of a favorite song, one of my original pieces, or even a custom-written song created just for you, I’m open to making the music personal and special for your day.

I typically perform slow, acoustic songs with an emotional and intimate feel — perfect for ceremonies, first dances, or other meaningful moments.
