Katie Herzig struck out on her own after eight years as the frontwoman for Newcomers Home. Herzig was no stranger to the solo game, having released her first solo album, Watch Them Fall, in 2004, so it was no surprise when, following the dissolution of Newcomers Home in 2006, Herzig put together a second album, Weightless, which was released that summer. Comprised of quirky, heartfelt songs that nodded to twangy, warm-voiced artists like Devon Sproule and Neko Case, the album generated quite a bit of critical buzz, and several songs from the album found their way onto network television shows, notably Grey's Anatomy. Herzig spent the next two years playing gigs, collaborating with other artists, and writing new material, and she even managed to snag a 2007 Grammy nomination for one of her songs, Heaven's My Home (performed by the Duhks). Her third full-length album, Apple Tree, was released in the spring of 2008. Her music continued to find its way onto television shows and in 2011, she released her fourth solo album The Waking Sleep. She returned in early 2014 with Walk Through Walls. ~ TiVo Staff, Rovi
