“Cathy-Anne McClintock’s Canadian Music Fest set was a unique breath of fresh air, blending folk, country and bluegrass influences with pop and adult contemporary. The self-titled debut solo CD, which is stunningly produced by McClintock and award-winning songwriter Steven McClintock. The album has some pretty impressive contributors, including Grammy Award-winning bluegrass/folk legend Tim O’Brien and fellow Canadian Alan Doyle (Great Big Sea). The songs on the album and live show are honest and memorable, including “How Can We Be Friends,” “I Wanna Live Like That,” “Crazy Bout You” and her softer,gentler version of “Strong Enough” that Sheryl Crow made popular. This beautiful Canadian living in the U.S. has won a ton of awards internationally. “Who Knew” is another song of Cathy-Anne’s that made me wish I knew about this talent long before now, however, it definitely won’t be the last we see of her. ”
“With a breath of Canadian fresh air, Cathy-Anne effortlessly stakes her claim on this album, without the need for comparison.
Elegance and soul.”

“The music industry is filled to capacity with people who sing songs … but very few singers.
It is over flowing with people who write songs … but very few songwriters. Cathy-Anne McClintock
is blessed to be a gifted songwriter who sings like a bird!”

"Americana" is a much over-used label; but in this case it wraps itself like a down comforter around British Columbia's 9-time winner of "Best Country Group," Best Bluegrass Group," and "Best Country CD."
