About Catherine Reed
The voice that feels like a remembered sunset. The guitar that wraps around you like a well-worn jacket. For over two decades in the heart of the Ozarks, Catherine Reed has been the sound of warmth, welcome, and weathered wisdom.
Drawing comparisons to the intimate storytelling of James Taylor, the smoky clarity of Norah Jones, and the raw emotionality of Eva Cassidy, Catherine’s performances are a journey through American roots—blues, folk, jazz, and country—stitched together by a voice audiences return for, year after year.
Her journey began in the legendary music soil of 1970s Austin, TX, before finding its true home in the misty hills of Eureka Springs, AR. She has been a beloved fixture at venues like the historic Basin Park Hotel and the Crescent Hotel, and has provided the soundtrack for over 1,000 weddings, countless festivals, and even the Walmart Shareholders Convention.
A six-time recording artist and multi-instrumentalist (guitar, piano, keys), Catherine’s magic lies in her connection. It’s in her "magical smile," her joyous energy, and the sense that every song is a conversation. It’s no wonder she’s a multi-award-winning musician, including Eureka Springs' "Best Musician" honor.
Whether it's a solo acoustic set that feels like a private confession or a full-band groove, Catherine Reed doesn't just perform—she creates atmosphere. Available for listening rooms, weddings, charitable fundraisers, and anywhere music is meant to feel like home.
