Moldovan-born singer-songwriter Catalina Cara has captivated
audiences with her signature blend of dreamy indie-pop, infused
with jazz and soul undertones. A leap-day child, born 29 February in Chișinău, she jumped into music early and soon lit up
Eastern Europe’s airwaves with fresh, genre-blurring singles that put
her name on the map.
Refining her craft through studies in Music and Drama in the UK,
Catalina shaped her artistic identity, leading to the release of her
debut EP, Leap Year Baby, in 2022. The record, inspired by her deep
connection to nature and introspective storytelling, weaves ethereal
soundscapes with raw emotional depth.
A frequent collaborator with leading Romanian producers, including
Yin Creatif (renowned for their work with Golan), Catalina has carved
a distinctive space in the music scene. Her music has travelled far
and wide, slipping into Spotify’s coveted editorial playlists as well as
heaps of fan-made ones, and landing her on stages like Electric
Castle, Summer Well and Romanian Fashion Week. A Best Emerging
Artist nomination at Romania’s Elle Style Awards followed, plus a
stint as the face of Germany’s sustainability-minded culture hub,
Kronendach.
