Katie  began singing in church choir in her home town of Asbury Park, NJ, and continued in high school talent shows and the Vassar College Madrigal Singers and chorus.  She made her way to San Francisco in 1978, singing (and playing keyboards) in bands like Barry Beam, Verbal Abuse, and Thump Thump Thump.  It was with these groups that she met the musicians who would later join her in creating the prototype party bands Zasu Pitts Memorial Orchestra, which won a Bammy for Best Independent Album, and Big Bang Beat.

Katie has always been recruited by  local dance record producers to sing on their latest tracks. She soon found herself touring discos and clubs everywhere, performing hi-NRG  hits with Megatone Records groups SFX and Modern Rocketry. More information about her records can be found here. 

As the 80s drew to a close, Katie began new collaborations with her husband, record producer and musician Morey G.  In a musical revue called  Morey Goldstein's Cavalcade of Stars,  Katie got rave reviews for her portrayal of Karen Carpenter.  This led the two to develop, with writer/director Tom Ross, A Karen Carpenter Christmas.

Throughout the 1990s and to the present, Katie continues to sing with Big Bang Beat, and other local bands, as well as star in A Karen Carpenter Christmas.  She has accompanied musical acts such as Ronnie Spector, Bonnie Raitt, The Doobie Brothers, and members of The Grateful Dead.  Katie has also performed at hundreds of special corporate events and conventions across the globe. Most recently, she helped pay  tribute to Ann-Margret , singing and dancing two scenes from Bye Bye Birdie at San Francisco's Castro Theater.
