What’s a musician to do when one of her favorite producers randomly comes across her songs, falls for them and sends her a personal e-mail?

If you’re Australian indie pop songstress Katie Cole and that producer is Howard Wiling (Smashing Pumpkins, Counting Crows, OK GO), you book a flight to Los Angeles and record a full-length album together!

Then, you hit New York City for several showcases at CMJ Music Marathon.

Oh, and while you’re in the area, it’s only natural that you stop by the On The Verge studio to perform a special acoustic performance.

Yep, dreams do come true and OTV host Megan has the scoop -- from Katie to you!
