Catie
Curtis and her collaborator,
Mark Erelli won
the Grand Prize in the 2006 International Songwriting
Competition for their song 'People Look Around,' a song
written in response to the hurricane Katrina disaster!
Way to go!
Catie grew up in Saco, Maine and went to Brown
University in Providence, Rhode Island. While at
college, she became involved in the local coffeehouse
circuit. After graduating, Catie worked as a waitress
and social worker while continuing to write and perform.
She moved to Boston, MA, in the early 1990s, where she
made a big splash on the Boston music scene. She's been
going strong ever since.
Catie has just released her tenth Album! Over the years,
her songs have been featured in numerous TV shows (such
as Alias, Dawson's Creek, Felicity and Chicago Hope) as
well as in several indie films. With a clear,
deceptively gentle voice, she can turn on a dime and
thrill the listener with unforeseen power and emotion.
Intricate acoustic picking sometimes slants its way into
jazz territory, recalling
Joan Armatrading, and her staunchly feminist
messages further the comparison. Nevertheless, Catie is
very much an original. She has toured extensively in
North America and has been featured at many of the
notable festivals - such as Newport, Philadelphia and
Kerrville. She has also shared the stage with Mary
Chapin Carpenter, Dar Williams, Girlyman and Bonnie
Raitt - among others - and played on the final Lilith
Fair tour.
