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, a 23-year old indie R&B musician, 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 two EPs – 2022’s Towards The End, and 2023’s Where To Find Me – received support from tastemakers like Zane Lowe, Ones To Watch, Under The Radar, and FLOOD Magazine while receiving spins from BBC 6Music, FIP, and CBC.
