Catherine Britt has a voice that instantly gets your attention... but unlike others, it is the craftsmanship of this singer/songwriter who unashamedly boasts a worthy story to tell that truly keeps her audience enthralled. She has lived a life in the world of entertainment most will never experience or dream of!

The Aussie girl from the coal works of Newcastle uprooted herself at 17 years old and moved for six years to Nashville, TN (USA), where she gained a deep knowledge of country/roots/folk history as well as touring extensively and releasing 3 top 40 Billboard hits under the nurturing guidance of RCA Records.

Her recording career commenced in 1999 when, at the tender age of 14, she released her first EP followed in 2001 by her debut album.

She went on to release nine studio albums, a “Best of” album, two successful side projects with The Hillbilly Killers (Bill Chambers & Tim Rogers) & The Pleasures (Lachlan Bryan) and collected along the way accolades, a legion of fans and a mantel of awards including the country industry’s highest honours: the 2009 CMAA Female Artist of the Year Award, 2012 CMAA Single of the Year, 2013 CMAA Female Artist of the Year Award, 2016 Female Artist of the Year, 2017 Vocal Collaboration of the Year for her celebrated single “FU Cancer,” as well as APRA Award and CMC Artist of the Year nominations. Six of her albums were nominated for the ARIA Award for Best Country Album, a first for any Australian country artist. In 2010, Catherine was also presented with the CMA Global Artist of the Year award.

“She’s The Real Deal,” proclaimed Elton John after discovering Catherine at 17. He found her debut album “Dusty Smiles & Heartbreak Cures” while touring Australia in 2002. Catherine met Elton John at his last Sydney show at his request, and he took a stack of her albums back to the USA on tour, handing them out to every major record label in Nashville, urging them to sign her. Soon after, RCA Records flew her over and offered her a record deal. Catherine moved to Nashville, signed with RCA, and played on the Grand Ole Opry at 17 years of age, still holding the record as the youngest Australian to grace its stage. She released three top 40 Billboard chart singles in the USA through RCA, including a country duet with Sir Elton John, which was his first country release. Over six years in Nashville, she toured and worked with iconic artists like Brooks & Dunn, Alan Jackson, Brad Paisley, Dolly Parton, Steve Earle, Guy Clark, Don McLean, Iris Dement, Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, and Jim Lauderdale just to name a few.

She is a cancer survivor, having been diagnosed with stage 2A triple-negative breast cancer at the age of 30, and fought hard to beat it. She remains cancer-free and a strong advocate for raising awareness among young women. Her hit song “F U Cancer” won the CMAA Golden Guitar Award for vocal collaboration.

Beyond music, Catherine became a formidable interviewer and host on Australia’s national ABC Saturday Night Country radio broadcast for over 2 years, adding her unique flavour to the popular program weekly. She shone on television as host of CMC’s ‘Alt Country’ program and took on roles as Managing Editor & Owner of Australia’s only Roots Music Magazine, Rhythms, and as founder and Festival Director of the prestigious Silverton Sunsets Music Festival.

Catherine also served as the GM & Creative Director at The Full Throttle Ranch in her hometown, further expanding her artistic and leadership credentials.

Despite her impressive credentials, Catherine’s drive to better herself and evolve as an artist never waned.

She continues to be one of Australia’s most successful singer/songwriters and business women.

Now, Catherine’s focus is on her upcoming album The Hardest Thing and her international touring schedule, which continues strongly into 2027 and beyond, sharing her evolving music with audiences worldwide.
