Cattaneo knows how to craft a lyric and pen a hook, to marry lyric and melody. On her albums, she says, "I did mainstream country songs I originally wrote for others, and I found myself a mainstream country artist. The single 'Girls Night Out' from 'Heaven to Heartache' charted. Some people wanted another single like that. And I wondered, 'Is that really me?'" The answer she came up with: Not quite. The music she's pursuing now is going down a darker, more brooding path. Cattaneo has finished a new batch of songs, she began the recording process in March and will put out an album in the late fall of 2013. If she had to pick a genre, she'd call it Americana, in the broadest definition of the term: music that encompasses all the genres of the great American tradition: country, blues and folk. This is her first album where she wrote every song with herself in mind, not with the idea that another artist with sing it.
