Angie’s Bio

Singer, actor, writer and composer Angie Louise has been creating and performing in her chosen city of Seattle since the 1990s. She is best known for her work as longtime frontwoman and songwriter for Weimar Berlin-inspired rock band The Love Markets (“Irresistible” - Seattle Magazine). Record releases with the Love Markets include the critically acclaimed World of Your Dreams, Beauty Factory, and most recently 2025’s Ship of Light, a vessel carrying luminous songs about hope, longing, misadventure, monsters stomping things, and billionaires in space. Angie’s writing awards and credits include an Academy of American Poets Prize; original songs and music for Snow White at Seattle Children’s Theatre; and the screenplays and songs for the award-winning feature films Gory Gory Hallelujah and Ira Finkelstein’s Christmas. Performing credits include a long list of principal roles at nationally recognized theatres including The 5th Avenue Theatre, Village Theatre, Seattle Children’s Theatre, and Theatre Under the Stars. Angie is a member of Actors’ Equity and ASCAP.

Favorite AEA stage credits include multiple local and touring productions of Cabaret (Sally, Kost); two stints as Molly in Unsinkable Molly Brown; and over 200 performances as Hattie in Allison Gregory & Steven Dietz’s beloved Go, Dog. Go! at SCT. Often cast as characters who are performers themselves, Angie’s lit up the stage as Electra in Gypsy (5th Avenue, alongside Judy Kaye); vamped it up as real-life vaudeville singer Elsie Campbell in Bootlegger (original cast, Village); gotten her diva on as rock star Jesse Dove in Citizen Ruth (directed by Tony nominee Dan Knechtges); accompanied herself on accordion as Kost in Cabaret (5th Avenue, TUTS, regional tour); been cut in half onstage as The Incomparable Rosalie in Carnival (Village); and punished the piano Jerry Lee Lewis-style as beehived housewife and unlikely rocker Vi Petty in Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story (5th Avenue).

These days, Angie’s work as a singer-songwriter brings her performer world and her writer world together, letting her dream up stories and imagine characters’ worlds as a writer and then interpret and inhabit them through the direct physical and emotional medium of musical performance. On The Love Markets’ third and latest record, Ship of Light, she takes listeners on an epic musical journey of love and revolution, guiding listeners through the stormy night and keeping an eye out for the shape of a friendly shore. She is currently at work on a solo record and will play Maxine in TV pilot “The Mess”, shooting in fall of 2026.
