Cati Landry

They may be living in a material world, but Cati Landry is an ethereal girl, and that sense of mysticism and enchantment lives like a silver lining laced throughout her songs. Born and raised on Vancouver Island in the Pacific Northwest of Canada, Miss Landry grew up on stage, and spent her formative years singing in old theatres full of velvet curtains and ghost stories; when she wasn’t performing, she could be found by the beach, dreaming up worlds to escape inside, and crafting poems & daydream lullabies.

This, in turn, led her to write songs and sing in various bands, and then to perform at jazz clubs, bars & theatres. By this time, she also began studying Literature at the University of Victoria, with a focus on the Victorian era & American transcendentalism. Next, she spent a year pursuing a Master’s in Songwriting at Berklee College of Music, where she immersed herself in the process of writing & recording her music, including her first release “Mind’s Eye,” recorded with a band in Los Angeles and produced by Neil Wogensen. With its shimmering atmosphere, captivating vocals & playful, introspective lyrics, “Mind’s Eye” offers a first glimpse into the enigmatic dreamworld of this wild-hearted, romantic girl. Cati’s most recent offering, last summer’s “Riptide,” is a dreamy folk ballad inspired by the rugged beauty of her coastal upbringing and the timeless music she grew up on, from Sinatra, Roy Orbison, and Patsy Cline to Fleetwood Mac and Mazzy Star—all filtered through the fresh & mystifying feelings that come with falling in love. She’s got the kind of spirit you’ll want to bring with you wherever life takes you, so press play and come along for the ride.
