About the Artist

Katie Weissman began playing the cello at the age of three at Buffalo Suzuki Strings after seeing Yo-Yo Ma appear on Sesame Street. She holds a Bachelor of Music in Cello Performance from Boston University, and her principal teachers include Nancy Anderson, Feng Hew, Michael Reynolds, Amanda Truelove, and Roman Mekinulov. When at home in Buffalo, Katie is a cellist and backup singer in the Little Cake Cover Band and is a substitute for the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. She also plays with contemporary music ensemble Wooden Cities, the composition think-tank Evolution of the Arm, free jazz group Root Cellar, folk-rock bands TEOA and Birddog, and various other chamber music outfits in the Western New York area. She has toured at home and abroad and has lent her playing to many recording projects in the studio, including multiple albums and stage performances by Buffalo's own Goo Goo Dolls. She teaches privately in her own studio and currently lives in Williamsville with her dogs, rabbits, and parakeet.
