“Saskatchewan's Katie Tupper makes the kind of soul-stained folk that feels instantly familiar, but it's her complex writing — vividly capturing the sights and smells of her home province, like the "fields of butter" on "How Can I Get Your Love?" — that makes her debut EP so anticipated, further calcifying the singer/songwriter's distinct and subtle touch.“ Exclaim!
“Tupper's smooth, neo-soul delivery is paired with a minimalist sound, often letting her honest songwriting shine in the forefront; definitely recommended for fans of Charlotte Day Wilson or Loony. .Her music helps us challenge the way we look back at events or people in our lives, always in search of ways to move forward with a set path and a clearer mind.” CBC Music
"[Katie Tupper] strikes a narrow balance between the vivid romanticism of soul and the hushed confessions of a folk singer/songwriter." - Under The Radar Magazine
"Katie Tupper pairs hard truths with soft sounds." - FLOOD Magazine

Katie Tupper, the rising soul singer from Saskatoon, follows her JUNO Award nominated sophomore EP Where To Find Me, with new track "Need Nothing", a groovy, toe-tapping alternative r&b song about unconditional love. "We wrote this song as a feel good confession of an endless stream of adoration," reflects Katie. "If nothing is given in return this feeling of love and willingness to express it will always be there."

MORE ABOUT WHERE TO FIND ME EP
“I feel so lucky and excited to be sharing this collection of songs,” says Tupper. “Each song I write and work on brings me one step closer to what I want my music to sound like. This EP is the closest I’ve felt yet. I really feel like my influences shine through in these songs and they feel really personal. I use music to try to figure myself out and to think about my identity.
Just before writing these songs, I was bouncing around a couple of new cities, meeting a lot of new people, and introducing myself to a lot of them. I experienced a lot of changes during those introductions. Some of those feelings and experiences are captured here.

Three of the songs on the project were written alongside my good friend Connor Seidel who is one of my favourite producers and musicians of all time. I love the worlds he builds with his production. I’m so excited for people to listen and to hear a few of the things I was feeling when I wrote this collection of songs.”
A former member of Saskatoon collective vbnd, her previous single, "Woman No" was the first single Where To Find Me. The track is a timeless soul ballad driven by Tupper's smokey vocals which soar over delicate finger-picked guitar and dreamy piano. "I wrote this song to my younger self," she explains. "I’m hoping it will defy time and space and tap into the brain of my teenage self. I want to give her advice to act on everything I was feeling rather than doing what looked right or seemed to be the correct choices."

Beneath the painted hues and infinite prairie skies of Saskatoon – a city in the heart of Canada – lies a soulful, creative spirit that proves there’s much more to the so-called ‘fly-over states’ than grassland and grain silos. Katie Tupper embodies that spirit and is determined to show there’s an entire world of boundary-pushing, genre-defying artists at work within the often overlooked region. Tupper's 2022 debut EP, Towards The End, received glowing acclaim from tastemakers like Zane Lowe and indie music press like Ones To Watch, Exclaim, Under The Radar, and FLOOD Magazine. She appeared on eTalk and recorded a filmed television performance for CBC. Tupper was one of four participants selected to be part of the 2023 Allan Slaight JUNO Master Class and one year later she has a JUNO Award nomination to go along with it.
