From childhood country dreams to festival stages, vintage country sounds, real songwriting and one of the UK scene’s most loved voices…In this episode of Mo Ho Sessions, we sit down with Katy Hurt at the 10th anniversary of Buckle & Boots Festival 2026 for a long-form conversation packed with laughter, nostalgia, country music history and honest reflections on building a career in UK country music.From growing up singing country music at just four years old, to becoming one of the UK’s most respected voices in the genre, Katy opens up about songwriting, the changing face of country music and why authentic storytelling still matters.We also chat about:🎙️ Growing up obsessed with country music and soaking up its history🎙️ Why she’d time travel back to 1950s Nashville and the era of Patsy Cline and classic country songwriting🎙️ The evolution of country music — and whether the legends would even recognise today’s sound🎙️ The early songs that will never see the light of day 😂🎙️ Working day jobs, writing songs in cars, and the real realities of independent music🎙️ The story behind her first international No.1 “Sounds Good In A Bar”🎙️ Why “Face to Face” became one of her most meaningful songs🎙️ UK country music, independent artists, and why the scene deserves more recognition🎙️ Touring, burnout, festival memories and the dream of one day opening for Rascal Flatts 👀Plus, Katy performs a beautiful acoustic version of “Sounds Good In A Bar” — the song written after a long shift waitressing that would go on to become her first international number one.And yes… we somehow end up discussing DeLoreans, 67 Chevy Impalas, Claire’s Accessories clip-ons, pirate music sites, terrifying cruise ships, giant cactuses, secret SoundClouds, festival balloons, and why independent country artists deserve way more love. 😂No rushed soundbites.
