2-Time Winner of the
Kathleen O'Bannon Memorial Bardic Competition
Catherine Koehler is available for a wide variety of performance venues. She can be seen at numerous Celtic Festivals performing as a traditional singer and storyteller, or occasionally she is found singing and playing the bodhran when a friend needs an extra group member. Although she specializes in Celtic trad style (sean nos) , she is a versatile performer who is equally at home singing bluegrass, Broadway, oldies, hymns, and folk songs. Alas, Country/Western does not exist in her world.
