Catie's Holiday EP available NOW!  Also, Catie performs at the White House and more news...!

On Monday, December 13th I performed at the White House!  It was an indescribable thrill that I will never forget -- and in the same week as the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell.  Wow, what a week!  Today, 7 days after my performance, I am releasing a holiday EP called "'Twas the Night before the White House," a recording of the holiday songs that were part of my set, performed with the band from the show at the White House.  (Go to the "music" section of www.CatieCurtis.com to download it now, $5 for 5 tracks!) The night before our show, we came together to rehearse at the Liaison Hotel in Washington, DC.  It wasn't long before we realized that something very special was happening.  I said "we should make a holiday CD, and I wish we could do it right now!"  To which John Jennings (guitarist and music producer) said, "I'll make a call."  The next thing we knew, we were putting a wrap on a recording at 2:00 in the morning at Bias Studio in Northern Virginia. We hope you will enjoy this as much as we enjoyed creating it with joyful hearts and a lot of laughter, deep in to the cold, quiet night of winter.  The EP features Ingrid Graudins on harmony vocals (and in the duet with me on "Baby It's Cold Outside"), Elana Arian on violin & harmonies, and John Jennings on guitar & harmonies.

In other news,I am launching an exclusive offer through gayweddings.com to marry you... and your partner!  Don't be confused-- check out the site or the video!

And finally, it looks like I will be recording my new CD in JANUARY instead of DECEMBER.  
Stay tuned for more news here...

See you out there,
Catie
