Malachi Nights Presents: Catherine Britt
Event description
It’s both the singer and the song that makes for truly distinctive and enduring artists. Lots of great songs and some mighty fine singing. Catherine Britt has a voice that instantly gets your attention … but unlike others, it is the craftsmanship of this singer/songwriter who unashamedly boasts a worthy story to tell that truly keeps her audience enthralled. Catherine’s new album is entitled Home Truths. They’re the best truths – direct, personal, and from the heart. Just the way Catherine sings. This album is also a new beginning. This is Catherine’s first release in over 20 years as a completely independent Australian artist.
Over the course of her career Catherine has collected a host of accolades, a legion of fans and a mantel of awards including the country industry’s highest honours, 2009 CMAA Female Artist of the Year Award, 2012 CMAA Single of the Year, 2013 CMAA Female Artist of the Year Award, 2016 Female Artist of the Year, 2017 Vocal Collaboration of The Year for her celebrated single “F U Cancer” as well as APRA Award and CMC Artist of the Year nominations. 6 of Catherine’s albums released to date have been nominated for the ARIA Award for the Best Country Album release, which is a first for any Australian country artist. In 2010, Catherine was also presented with the CMA Global Artist of the Year award. Catherine’s talent has also seen her tour, perform and record with some of music’s most respected names including Kasey Chambers, Paul Kelly, Sir Elton John, Steve Earle, Dolly Parton, Don McLean, Chris Isaak, Brooks & Dunn, Alan Jackson, Guy Clark and Keith Urban to name but a few. To this day Catherine remains the youngest Australian to ever perform at the Grand Ole Opry at the age of 17.

About the Malachi
In the heart of Oberon NSW the Malachi Gilmore Hall launched in April 2022 as a new venue presenting a whole range of performing and visual arts. After forty years standing dormant, the State Heritage listed Art Deco theatre is undergoing a comprehensive restoration. The reactivation of the Malachi will return the Hall to the original purpose for which it was built in 1937 - a cultural and social focal point for the town.
