Get Ready sees Katie Dauson charging headfirst into rock and roll tradition — and coming out the other side with something fresh. The Toronto singer-songwriter fuses blues, rockabilly, and classic 70s rock into a track that feels built for late-night drives and sweat-soaked stages.
The song’s energy is immediate. Harmonica lines snarl and soar, while rhythm guitar locks into a groove that refuses to let up. It’s punchy, loud, and gloriously unpolished, capturing the spirit of rock music at its most direct.
Dauson’s lyrics are confrontational but uplifting. She doesn’t shy away from self-doubt — she weaponizes it. The song challenges detractors with a smirk rather than a snarl, making its defiance feel playful instead of bitter.
Her vocal delivery adds another layer of grit. Drawing from influences like Bob Seger and Wanda Jackson, Dauson sounds fearless and fully in command, never overstating her point.
Produced by James Nickle, Get Ready is a lean, no-nonsense statement of intent. It’s proof that rock and roll still thrives when artists trust their instincts — and Katie Dauson clearly does.
