Catherine Britt was born December 31, 1984 in Newcastle, Sydney, Australia. The youngest of four children, Catherine has three older brothers. Her country music-loving father, Steve Britt, says Catherine became hooked on country music after she saw the movie Coal Miner's Daughter (1980), the biopic of Loretta Lynn's life, when she was very young. When she was a child she also listened to Dolly Parton and Hank Williams albums as her mom, Ann Britt, drove her to school each morning.
As a child she derived inspiration from those country stars and emulated their writing styles, with a specific focus on Hank Williams. At 11, her career jump-started when her parents took her to see a Bill Chambers concert.
She surprised and delighted Chambers by requesting an obscure song and was invited onstage to sing with the band. Her musical abilities awed Chambers and he invited her to continue playing more gigs with his band. In 1999, she recorded her first EP, produced by Chambers, titled In The Pines. |
