Kate Reid

BIO/DESCRIPTION

Born in Whitehorse, Yukon, Kate Reid’s love for country music began at an early age. Inspired by legends like Terri Clark, LeAnn Rimes, Shania Twain, Dolly Parton, Sara Evans, and Reba McEntire, Kate would often serenade her neighbors from her backyard swing set with her renditions of their favorite songs.

Now a country singer/songwriter based in Calgary, Alberta, Kate’s powerful voice and relatable songwriting have set her apart in the Canadian country music scene. With a career that continues to grow, she has headlined iconic stages, including Ranchman’s, and earned accolades such as the Best Original Song award at Ranchman’s Rising Star Competition. Her single “Bang” hit the Top 10 on the Canadian Indie Country Countdown, and she has performed at numerous festivals and venues throughout Alberta.

Kate has had the privilege of working with renowned industry professionals, including Stephen Shiveley, Charlotte Avenue Entertainment, Jordan Craig, and Grant Howarth. In 2021, she released her debut single “Numb,” followed by her first music video and her debut EP I Do in November 2022. Nominated for three YYC Music Awards, Kate’s music continues to captivate audiences, and 2024 promises new original songs and dynamic live shows.

Kate signed with Blue Willow in 2024 and is working on a new project at BWE Studios. We are anxiously anticipating the release of two new singles including, “Girl” coming out on February 28th. In Kate’s words “Girl” stands out compared to other heartbreak songs because it isn’t for the person who did the wrong and it isn’t a letter of anger or pain or revenge, it’s for anyone who’s ever been in a similar situation and is thinking it’s their fault or there’s something they could have done differently.
