hello? r u there?

it’s k8ie.

k8ie is the jazz‑infused alternative r&b project of Katie Cunningham, a Fort Collins–based vocalist, instrumentalist, and songwriter whose soulful, vulnerable sound draws from influences like Amy Winehouse, ELIZA, Jai’len Josey, Mac Ayres, Hiatus Kaiyote, and Doechii. A Clive Davis Institute graduate with an affinity for the number eight, she’s now stepped into a new chapter with the release of her debut EP classified, a groovy, emotionally rich collection that showcases her dynamic musicianship and lyrical depth.

Her debut ep, “classified,” released on August 8, 2026.
