Cat Clyde

Cat Clyde is a Canadian singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Her sound is drenched in roots influences: blues, soul, folk, jump, jazz, and even swing. Her voice is a crystalline contralto that enunciates each syllable, imbuing her songs with resonance and meaning. Ivory Castanets, her 2017 debut, drew press notice for its contrast between youthful singing and timeless song forms. 2019's Hunter's Trance, for Cinematic Music Group, found her backed by an aggressive garage band in a collection split between ballads and barroom rockers. 2020's Blue Blue Blue was a raw, barebones collaboration with her partner, singer/songwriter Jeremie Albino, offering covers of classic roots material. 2023's Down Rounder was recorded in six days with producer Tony Berg and a cast of handpicked players in a Los Angeles studio. In 2026 she returned with Mud Blood Bone co-produced with Drew Vandenberg.
