Catherine McGrath + Special Guests Roswell
Catherine McGrath, the Irish country singer and acclaimed acoustic songwriter, has left an indelible mark on the global music stage. Hailing from Rostrevor, Northern Ireland, McGrath journeyed to Nashville to collaborate with top songwriters like Liz Rose, Jimmy Robbins, and Josh Kerr (Grammy winners). Her debut album, released with Warner Bros. Records, showcases her songwriting prowess. Headlining tours and gracing festivals such as Glastonbury, C2C, and British Summer Time, she’s mesmerised audiences of 50,000. McGrath toured with Morgan Evans, shared stages with Picture This, and played iconic venues like London’s O2 Arena and Belfast’s SSE Arena. Endorsed by Elton John, her music earned coveted spots on Apple Music and Spotify. Featured in a BBC Radio One documentary, she received the Countryline Rising Star Award at the Boisdale Music Awards in 2017.
