Thank  you for visiting my ReverbNation page. I'm a working singer/songwriter/artist and have had the priviledge of experiencing a lot of great times and sharing the stage with some great musicians over the many years I've been playing live music. Life leads us down mysterious paths sometimes they never make sense until they just "do." I played consistantly for a long time and then abrubtly took a year and a half off...at the time it was just what I had to do. Over the last year I've reconnected myself with my own music and why I love doing what I'm doing. I have also been playing bass in a wonderful band called "Dooley Noted' - based out of Kalamazoo, MI. I'm currently working on new material for a solo album I plan to record in 2009. So now that you are up to date on where I'm at - here's a look at some of pieces of my history that lead me to this place....
 

"Stacy released her EP "Time to Fly" in 2002 and it was quickly apparent that there was something special here. The cd immediately had many tracks picked up by Richmond's radio stations local shows and the album was well received by everyone - keeping old fans happy and gaining her many new ones!

Koviak spent most of 2003-2004 in the studio working on her much anticipated full length LP, entitled "treading bleu." With this album she took a more artistic approach to the project as a whole and the outcome was a dynamic cd which gracefully displayed her diverse songwriting styles and sounds. Treading Bleu features acoustic tracks, full band tracks, and a few songs in between. Fueled with slightly darker undertones than on her prior EP - this album continued her journey into composing with a full sound....which led to the band. With the expansion of her sound, and completion of the album it was apparent that a larger live sound was in order. She teamed up with a talented group of musicians to form a unique sound that allows a whole new interpretation to her already expressive solo stage show. Joined by David Patterson on guitar, Brian Collins on drums, and Jeff McManus on bass guitar, stacy performed with the band at larger venues and special events, while continuing to play solo acoustic shows where requested.

Stacy relocated back to the midwest in 2006 and can now be found playing venues throughout Michigan and the surrounding states, but spent the past 6 years on the East coast based out of Richmond, VA. She continually makes a positive impression in local music scenes and has built up a diverse fan base throughout her career sharing the stage with various local and national bands, headlining as a solo acoustic act in clubs and performing in a variety of area Festivals. She has been a participating artist in the Richmond Music Festival and Art Expo, CAM Fest, The Carytown WM Festival, the Fete de la Musique Festival, and was a featured performer in The Richmond Songwriter's Series. Stacy has received praise from the Richmond Music Journal, and her music also maintains steady air play on both XL102's "Studio B," and Y101's "Community Service" radio programs, and can also be caught these days on WIDR FM.

Throughout this journey Stacy has shared the stage with national acts like Mat Kearney, Mute Math, Griffin House, Sin City Revival and countless talented local bands/ artists and is currently working on material for her new album slated to be out in 2009."
