Purchase includes CD booklet signed by Katie Pruitt.
Emerging singer, songwriter, and musician Katie Pruitt will release her highly anticipated debut album, Expectations, February 21 via Rounder Records. A coming of age album that pulls from Pop, Americana, Rock, and Folk, Expectations is a daring statement tackling topics of religion, mental health, and modern love. Atlanta native Katie Pruitt's Rounder debut delivers messages of resilience and the idea of embracing what makes you unique.
Co-produced by Pruitt and her close friend Mike Robinson, Expectations was recorded in Nashville and consists of ten new songs that are both uplifting and insightful (written solely by Pruitt) including the title track, which was recently released to critical acclaim.
The album also features her new song “Loving Her” which premiered in celebration of National Coming Out Day. Pruitt reflects, “Why is being ‘gay’ and ‘Christian’ somehow mutually exclusive? I wrestled with this concept my whole life. It made no sense to me that ‘love’ could be a sin. I finally decided that even if it was a sin, I didn’t care. I was in love for the first time with a beautiful girl that loved me back. It didn’t feel wrong to me. After a tough phone conversation with my father, his words still ringing in my head…‘I’m sorry, I just don’t understand it’ to which I responded, ‘people don’t like what they don’t understand.’”
