| Artist InformationInstrumentation Katie Barbato : Vocals, guitar, and keys Matt Teacher: Guitar Adam Schwartz: Bass Mike Lawson: Vocals and drumsBiography The Sleepwells are currently performing in the Philadelphia and New York City area while in the process of recording their new album "Somewhere Over the Radar" at Sine Studies in Philly with engineer Obie O’Brien (Soraia, Bon Jovi). With a sold out performance at the House of Blues and regular rotation on WERS 88.9fm and WBCN 104.1 in Boston, lead singer Katie Barbato packed up her guitar and moved down the coast to Philly. Here is where she met up with old friends and music buddies Matt Teacher and Mike Lawson who opened their state of the art Sine Studios in 2004. Adam Schwartz from London rounds out the rhythm section with his talented bass stylings. Together the Sleepwells have been rockin’ Philadelphia and NYC playing the North Star, Tin Angel, World Cafe Live, Pianos,Kenny’s Castaway and Grape Street. Featured live this past August on legendary Gene Shay’s radio show, The Sleepwells made their debut performance on WXPN’s 88.5 acclaimed station. Katie’s songwriting is heartfelt and has been featured on NPR’s AllSongs Considered Open Mic, on compilations with Martin Sexton and Edie Carey, and has opened for Citizen Cope, Deb Talan of the Weepies, and Melissa Ferrick.Discography Somewhere Over the Radar 2007 (currently in production)The Tapestry Room 2003 Dangerous Daze 2001 Shootin’ for Noon 1999 | |
