Goldie Heart is the effervescent evolution of the beloved singer songwriter Katie Welch, who is here to reintroduce herself to the world authentically and unapologetically. A lifelong performer (who once gave Britney Spears a private show in Vegas) whose sultry vocals and intoxicating energy have captivated audiences from nightlife to entertainment’s elite, the emergence of GoldieHeart signals more than just a name change for Welch. It’s a renaissance.
Born from a challenging moment at the onset of her production journey – when an entire body of work was stolen from her – “Blow My Mind” offers an uplifting celebration of resilience – A testament to keep on dancing in the face of adversity. Embodying the tenacious spirit of the singer-songwriter, this track delivers a sonic atmosphere that is at once uplifting and deeply moving, reveling in the transformative magic of music.
“Blow My Mind” masterfully blends the essence and sensibilities of the golden era of 90’s pop with a powerful energy and tempo to create the ultimate feel-good melody, interspersed with her sultry vocals.
“After having all my music stolen in 2022, I had to completely start my production journey over. It was devastating, but I wasn’t going to let that stop me from chasing my dream. So, in March of 2023 I rallied the incredible creative community I have around me to put on a writing camp which brought together some of the most amazing producers and songwriters I know. ‘Blow My Mind’ was the very first song that came out of the very first day of that writing camp – It holds a really special place in my heart and was a pivotal moment that helped me bring Goldie Heart to life. To me, this track signals a new chapter and is really a testament to keep on dancing in the face of adversity”
“When I set out on this journey – despite the challenges at hand – I really wanted to write a song that fully embodied the essence of who Goldie Heart is. Goldie Heart is carefree, authentically and unapologetically in a category of her own. At my core, that is who I am and I wanted to embrace that. Ultimately, I was really looking to bring back that feel good, Whitney Houston-inspired, “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)” type of pop that I grew up on. You know, that catchy beat that just makes you wanna dance? It’s what made me want to chase this dream in the first place.”
“This release means a lot to me because it was truly the first step of a new beginning. This track gave me so much hope and joy throughout the entire creative process and during what could have been a really dark time as an artist. I hope it can bring that same happiness and carefree joy to each listener.”
“With this track, it was important to me to be able to pay homage to the music that made me into the artist that I am today. I want listeners to feel the nostalgia, pop sensibility and influence of my favorite songs while still being able to create something that felt new and fresh. I can’t wait to share more of the music I have coming out this year…there is some major news on the horizon and we’re only just getting started.“
