Bio

Caterina Eve comes from a culturally mixed background. Although she was born in Austria Caterina was raised by her Austrian mother and French father in France and South Africa. She also has Croatian and Spanish blood running in her veins from both sides of the family. The family made frequent visits to her mother's relatives (all accomplished singers and musicians) in Austria where they would spend countless hours singing and playing popular and folk music. This very musical family readily acknowledges that Caterina was born with their passion and talent for music. As a child Caterina trained as a classical dancer for 2 years. Whilst in her teens, she studied 3 years at a music school in Cape Town, South Africa where she won numerous prizes playing the piano. She also used to write poems and short stories for the school newspaper. Caterina grew up appreciating music from every single corner of the world with her preferences being soul, blues, r' n b, rock' n roll, Balkan gypsy, latino and classical music. Her career has taken many different paths including jobs as an administrator, teacher and translator. She also had an active interest in psychology and personal development with a view to becoming a counselor. However, her love of music prevailed and went back to singing and playing the piano - nurturing her talents with various teachers when she settled in London. She has since sung in various local pop groups and a gospel choir. As she performed here and there, she decided to start to write, compose and produce her own music and released her first EP in May 2009. As Caterina has been exposed to all sorts of music throughout her life, she likes to incorporate various musical genres within her songs and experiment with different ways of approaching songwriting, composing and producing, aiming for a unique flavour whilst remaining contemporary. Her music tends to be a cross between pop, alternative, hip-hop, dance and soul - being very rhythmic and melodic.[color="green"][/color]
