Hello Stranger is Catie Curtis' first string band CD, recorded with a select group of Nashville all-star pickers including Stuart Duncan
(fiddle, mandolin), Alison Brown (banjo), Todd Phillips (bass), George Marinelli (guitar/mandolin/dobro) and Kenny Malone (percussion).

Hello Stranger includes a number of her own tunes (fan favorites) as well as a few choice covers. Guests Darrell Scott and Mary Gauthier dropped by for vocal appearances on several cuts, and the resulting album is reminiscent of Steve Earle's Train A Comin'
project in its intimacy, and shows a side of Curtis' musical persona never before captured on CD. Highlight tracks include the Curtis chestnut "My Dad's Yard",the title track "Hello Stranger" (featuring a duet with Mary Gauthier) and a cover of the Cat Steven's Track Titles s classic "Tuesday's Dead."
 

With a dedicated fan base across the U.S. and Europe and with help from Mary Chapin Carpenter and an impressive roster of seasoned players, Catie Curtis’ latest release, Long Night Moon, is one of the most highly-anticipated releases of 2006 for devotés of the singer-songwriter tradition. With ten years of recordings under her belt, the songs on Long Night Moon speak deftly in the voice of a woman who understands fully the joys and frustrations of adulthood without compromising the wit and gentle spirit that have always characterized her work.
