Raleigh-based songwriter Kate Rhudy worked alongside collaborator and producer Andrew Marlin of Watchhouse (formerly Mandolin Orange) to create her debut, Rock N’ Roll Ain’t For Me, which earned Rhudy nods from WUNC and INDY Week as “one of the Triangle’s sharpest young songwriters”.
Rhudy’s lyrics earned her recognition from She Shreds, “Kate Rhudy is changing the name of country by doing things her own way.” The Strangers Almanac added, “for those tired of Americana music from the male perspective, give Kate Rhudy’s debut a shot.”
On October 9, 2020, Rhudy released a 7-inch record “Dance It Away, Snake”, including the single “Dance It Away” featured on Spotify’s Infinite Indie Folk playlist.
