Catherine Britt is an international country music sensation. Given support from one of her most dedicate fans, Sir Elton John, this Newcastle born woman has gone from strength to strength. She's a singer, songwriter with a brand new album under her belt.
Catherine’s new album is entitled 'Home Truths' which is very personal and from the heart. This album is also a new beginning. This is Catherine’s first release in over 20 years as a completely independent Australian artist. It’s a decision based on Catherine wanting complete control of her career – and having ownership of her own recording masters and copyrights. That’s something that – now as a parent of two young children – she believes is important – and something to pass on to them. Catherine chats to FAB FM's Paul Makin about her life and career including her brush with breast cancer, something that made her even more determined to leave a legacy. https://catherinebritt.com/
