Angie is back! Nominated for Best Female for the 2005 WPGU-buzz Local Music Awards, Angie and her band are nominated in the Folk/Americana category for 2006. Originally from Mount, Sterling, Illinois, Angie has lived in the Champaign-Urbana area for over 15 years. Her music is a mix of country-influenced folk and pop. Angie started playing guitar back in high school, and played in two bands while she attended the University of Missouri. A review in AJA Punk Planet says, “Angie Heaton lays it all out without the melodrama. She's honest and careful in what she expresses through her lyrics; she is thoughtful, rather than wounded.” Angie writes all of her own music, and is currently working on a new album, which she hopes to record in April.
