Angel Katz • "Sidewalk"

Composed, written, sang, produced, mixed by Angel Katz when people treat you like something they can walk on, remember you are still resilient and you are capable. Don't let them steal your sparkle or belittle your lifework or treat you like something they just used to help them along their path.

Handling all duties on her own (composition, writing, singing, production, mixing), even down to the artwork, Chicago artist Angel Katz livens this Saturday with the single "Sidewalk". With an acoustic guitar and a voice of strength, this song is full of power and a middle finger to a fool from the past. At just two minutes long, it comes and goes quicker than I'd like, but it fits nicely on repeat, soundtracking today's breezy Chicago weather. This song would fit perfectly in a Sofar Sounds set.

Here's what she had to say about the song: "When people treat you like something they can walk on, remember you are still resilient and you are capable. Don't let them steal your sparkle or belittle your lifework or treat you like something they just used to help them along their path." If this article could use emojis, I'd use the one with both hands up in the air. Listen to "Sidewalk" above and look out for more from Angel down the road.
