Kate Voegele gearing up for 'A Fine Mess'

Singer-songwriter Kate Voegele is gearing up for the May release of A Fine Mess, the highly anticipated follow-up to her 2008 debut album, Don't Look Away (MySpace/Interscope). Voegele recorded the album in Los Angeles with producer Mike Elizondo (Rihanna, Maroon 5, Pink).

The 22-year-old has been racking up frequent flier miles of late, jetting back and forth between L.A. and Wilmington, North Carolina, where she's also shooting new episodes of the CW Network's hit TV series "One Tree Hill." This season sees Voegele reprising her role as singer-songwriter Mia. She made headlines last year by performing several songs on the show, all from Don't Look Away.

In their year-end issue, Billboard magazine spotlighted the 10 biggest film and television placement/appearances of 2008 and put Voegele's involvement with "One Tree Hill" at No. 1.

The new season of "One Tree Hill" will see Voegele giving audiences sneak previews of songs from the upcoming album, beginning with the March 23rd episode, when she will premiere a brand-new track titled "Manhattan From The Sky."

Voegele, hailed by Entertainment Weekly for being among the best of "the new golden age of female singer-songwriters," spent the majority of 2008 touring in support of debut album Don't Look Away, the record that earned her "Artist To Watch In '08" accolades from Billboard. Over the course of the year, she shared stages with Natasha Bedingfield, The Veronicas, Ben Lee, Cary Brothers and launched her own headlining tour.
