Henry Catania Edit listing

I am a 13-year-old singer/guitarist/songwriter from Conondale in Queensland.  When I was 11 I started busking all over the Sunshine Coast. I now perform regularly on the local music scene with gigs across numerous venues on the Coast and appearances at large scale music festivals.

In 2022 I performed at the Horizonal Festival, opening for Emily Wurramara and Andrea Kirwan.   I was nominated as a finalist in Noosa Stars Alive last year and was one of the six finalists at the 2023 Gympie Country Music Muster Youth Talent Search.

In September 2023 I won the Caloundra Live & Local Songwriting Competition which resulted in me performing at the 2023 Caloundra Music Festival.  In January 2024 I attended the Tamworth Country Music Festival and was selected as an entrant in Maccas Golden Gig.  I performed on the Riverside Campsite Stage and opened shows and performed alongside country music artist Col Finely.    It was also at Tamworth that I released my debut single Hide & Seek which achieved a top 10 download in its first week.

I May 2024 I performed in The Crib at the Earth Frequency Festival and I have just been announced in the lineup as an artist for the 2024 Gympie Music Muster.

Also, late last year I received a RAF Grant to record my second single ‘Turn Around’ which was released on 3 May 2024.
