Singer/songwriter **Katie Stump** has dropped her new video, _Minnesota_, the second
video from her critically acclaimed EP, _Feels Like Home_. The video, set to the
breathtaking song itself, is a heartbreaking song of loss and longing of someone
close, and the emotional turmoil it causes.

Born and raised in Fullerton, California, Stump grew up in a musical family, and
was encouraged to pursue music at a young age. Over the past year Katie has emerged
as one of the most exciting up and coming young artist, and recently won the coveted
U.S.A. Songwriter competition.

With the kick-off of **SXSW** today, the album and video release are perfect timing
as Stump will be the featured artist at the _[USA Songwriting Competition Showcase](https://indierockcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/10153868502440259)_
this Friday evening at **Mozart’s** in Austin.

Her new EP was produced by Grammy Award winning producer **Mikal Blue** (Colbie 
Caillat, Jason Mraz, One Republic).
