The New Yorker magazine called her a "folk-rock goddess," and the Boston Herald said she is "one of the melodic delights of our age." Ever since Catie Curtis began touring the country in 1995, this Boston-based musician has been gathering critical accolades and a devoted grassroots following with her vivid songwriting, her sweet, soulful voice, her dedication to social issues, and her great onstage energy. Many miles and ten albums later, Catie has gained a solid artistic reputation and seen her original tunes grace TV series like Alias and Dawson's Creek, plus several indie movies.

Catie returns to the Freight tonight with a knockout evening of music from her new album, Hello, Stranger (Compass), a great selection of songs full of wit and compassion.
