PRINCESS KATIE & RACER STEVE: ROCK FOR KIDS
Princess Katie & Racer Steve began making music for children quite by accident. For several years Katie & Steve made volunteer visits to local children's hospitals and at events for at risk children dressed up in costumes of famous and notable characters from TV and movies. They regularly visited children's hospitals dressed as Shrek and Fiona, The Incredibles, holiday elves, and as SpongeBob and Spider-Man. In 2007 they were profiled in the New York Daily News in a regular feature called, "Big Town, Big Heart" [1] Katie & Steve decided that it would be fun to entertain these kids through song and the characters of Princess Katie & Racer Steve were born. In 2008 the band's second album, "Fast & Feisty" was named one of the top 10 children's music albums of the year by Cookie (magazine).[2] The band was also voted "2009's Best Kid's Entertainers in New York City" by Nickleodeon and ParentsConnect readers. Songs For The Coolest Kids was selected as a "Favorite Thing" by Disney's Family Fun Magazine. Songs for The Coolest Kids and Fast & Feisty were also editor's picks in Parenting Magazine.
Princess Katie & Racer Steve continue to perform and visit regularly at local children's hospitals and charity events.
The band travels and performs approximately 30-50 shows per year all over the United States. Princess Katie & Racer Steve have recorded and released 3 albums and one live concert DVD. Hear them on Sirius XM's Kids Place Live! Watch their videos on YouTube!
