Details:
Coty is the Bellingham folk community''s best-kept secret. Without exaggerating, she is the Emmylou Harris of a new generation..." - Jenn Hartman, KUGS Program Director 2006-2008 and Ladyfest Bellingham Organizer
Coty Hogue may come from Montana and lives in the Pacific Northwest, but her voice sounds like it''s been echoing around some Smokey Mountain for ages. Whether its completely unaccompanied or with straight-ahead guitar or claw-hammer banjo, she sings country songs, the genuine article - some old, some recent, some of her own - all with a voice unconstrained by age, time or geography. Dabbling in various genres for some time, it wasn''t until she heard her mentor Ginny Hawker sing an unaccompanied ballad that she fell in love with the traditional music of Appalachia. Through Hawker''s encouragement and guidance, Hogue has pursued this passion, a passion that is delivered in the songs she sings. In addition to her solo performances, Hogue can also be seen playing with Grampa''s Geetars, an all acoustic Americana band based in Bellingham, and the Tall Valley Girls, an old-time duo with Jenna Veatch.
ABOUT TO THE WEST
To the West is not only a collection of songs I love to sing, but also a reflection of my experience growing up in rural western Montana and my journey even farther west to Bellingham, Washington. During my time here in the Northwest, I have been fortunate to live in a very supportive community, and with that support I have grown significantly both personally and musically. Each of the songs and all the people who have contributed to this album represent that venture."
In addition to Coty, these accomplished Northwest musicians lent their
talents to the project:

Nova Karina Devonie (Jo Miller and her Burly Roughnecks, Miles and

Laurel Bliss (Cliff and Laurel, Southfork Bluegrass Band)
