Katrina Cain is an Austin-based artist and songwriter. Steeped in Americana, she aims to use her blooming writing voice to answer the question: what defines belonging?

Katrina’s own journey has unfolded on both coasts and in the American southwest. A native Texan, she was born in Dallas, raised in a small New England town, and has moved over 20 times. When asked where she’s from, the response of “Dallas born, Yankee bred” is the easiest way to answer. Since returning to her Texas roots, she has called this state home longer than any other place, and intends to stay for good this time.

Katrina Cain’s music has been described as many genres from Americana, to country, to folk. Simply put, she’s a singer-songwriter. She is most known for her stand out performances on Season ... 15 of NBC's The Voice, with her haunting rendition of “Rhiannon”.
After the pandemic forced show cancellations and postponed releases, Katrina found herself, like so many others, locked down in her studio writing song after song. This songwriting project explores identity and storytelling with simplicity, authenticity, and rhyme. Unlike her previous pop projects, these songs were gritty folk mixed with a dash of country; a true representation of the Texas girl she’d been avoiding for so long.
The result of this several-years-long songwriting binge is an EP, set for release in the second half of 2023.
Katrina’s music brings the listener on a journey that breaks the barriers of genre: sweet, soulful vocals and luscious dreamscapes, swinging between soul breaking singer-songwriter ballads, and honky tonk country anthems. In her quietest moments, Katrina’s pop sensibilities make room for her authentic tales of Americana. Never one to skimp on lyric, Katrina's artful storytelling bears more of the human experience than just a heartbreak like the one before.
