What fans are saying

September 26th 2025
My girl friend is a huge C&W fan with many friends and connections to Nashville and has opened a wonderful new world of music for me. I surprised her with tickets for her birthday to Kathy’s Spire Center concert last night. It was an amazing concert, especially in this intimate venue. We hung around after the show and she came out to mingle with the few of us who hung around. She was able to talk to Kathy as they have mutual Nashville friends and hopefully made this evening a memorable night. Many thanks to Kathy🤗

Kathy Mattea Biography

Hailed by The Washington Post as “one of Nashville’s finest song interpreters,” Kathy Mattea has enjoyed much success and acclaim during her 35-year career in Country, Bluegrass and Folk music, including 2 Grammy wins, 4 CMA Awards, 4 #1 country singles, and five gold albums (plus a platinum Greatest Hits collection). Her latest album is “Pretty Bird", produced by her old friend, roots music wizard Tim O’Brien. The wide-ranging collection of songs chronicles a period of rededication to singing, digging back in with a vocal coach and emerging with a poignant and eclectic CD. In addition to creating and recording music and performing live on tour, Kathy is increasingly involved with public broadcasting, consulting and contributing on screen in Ken Burns’ 2019 documentary for PBS “Country Music”, and recently replacing founder Larry Groce as the host of the long-running NPR show “Mountain Stage”.
