Katie Rox is a Canadian singer-songwriter from a farm on the outskirts of Airdrie, Alberta, who lives in Vancouver, British Columbia.

She also sings most of the backup vocals on Songs From Instant Star 2, released in April, 2006, by Alexz Johnson, and has a cameo in the Jeremy Fisher video for "Cigarette."

Nice Horse was born when Katie went on a girls’ trip to Hawaii with some friends from the Alberta music scene, where they ended up writing dozens of songs.

They released their first EP, A Little Unstable, with producer Jeff Dalziel (Washboard Union, Brett Kissel), and the legendary Bob Rock (Metallica, Mötley Crüe) on a couple of tracks.
