Following her scholarship from Lord Lloyd Webber at 'Arts Educational London Schools' Catherine took to playing the guitar, as a passion to write and perform her own songs took over.

Having powerful stage presence and an ability to work fast with harmonies she worked as part of the 'Music Box' team singing at some of London's finest music venues performing with artists such as Lee Ryan (Blue), Vula (Basement Jaxx), Angie Brown and Patrick Alan to name a few.

Miss Taylor Dawson's intensity and talent as a singer and performer have over time won her production deals across Europe, radio shows, and live club PAs. Versatile and conscientious of her audience Catherine is as competent playing at a celebrity showcase as in a muddy field in Glastonbury, delivering a powerful, personal and enjoyable performance every time.

In one of her latest performances Catherine was proud to help raise money for Help for Hero's and Cancer Research, it was a fantastic high profile charity event at London's Comedy Store where Catherine also duo-ed with Billy Franks from the critically acclaimed 'Faith Brothers'.

As a session artist her latest session jobs include working for the worlds number one sample replays company 'Scorcio'. She has thus far recreated the vocal sound of 'Katy Perry', 'Joss Stone' and 'Bjork' for television adverts and re-mixes.

Currently Catherine is working with award winning 'Clubland' producer Wayne Donnelly and completing a fresh and upbeat dance music album to be released this summer 2011.

Other people Catherine has worked with to date are:
Rat Pack and Baby-D, Lee Ryan, Jamie T, Angie Brown, Vula, Billy Franks, Jon Douglas and the team at 'Sarmwest Studios','Matrix Studio's', Music Box, True Ingredients, P-Theory, Mikey McCleary (musician/producer), Ronni Carroll, Blu Rum 13, Hot Coffee Productions.

Catherine uses a 'Taylor 610se Guitar'. The Taylor guitar creates a bright, crystalline timbre with strong projection and warm overtones, harmonizing beautifully with Catherine's soulful vocal performance.
Catering for individual taste upon a selection of songs from her repertoire Catherine plays as a solo artist or with accompaniment from other professional seasoned musicians.

"She has it all: the good looks, a charming, easy going manner, outstanding voice and feel for the audience. Catherine well exceeded expectations and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She strongly contributed to making the evening so special and one to remember for a long long time. The only downside is that all good things come to an end …but memories will live on. Thank you Catherine! "

"Please pass on to Catherine our thanks for her music on the 22nd Jan 2011. She looked and played beautifully - and it was our regret that Cliveden did not allow a personal microphone, because we would have enjoyed the music even more. However, Catherine improvised and became a 'roving minstral' which was a great way to overcome the sound issue. Please thank her very much for her contribution to the evening! "

"Catherine you are an acoustic Diva! You arrived at our party and immediately everyone was mesmerised by your presence and fabulous repertoire. This was a private family gathering of all age groups and there was something for every one. Most poigniant was the opening song which holds special meaning for us and played on the heart strings! Wonderful!! You made our party such a memorable occasion for everyone and we couldn't have been more delighted if Alicia Keys or Stevie Nicks had turned up! Your album is fab and we have been listening to it and looking back at the special memory.Many thanks and much love from your new fan club in Manchester. Brilliant! "

"Thank you so much Catherine for performing at our wedding. You made the evening! You got everyone of all ages up on the dance floor. You judged your audience and the tone of the evening perfectly. We were so impressed that you even learnt 2 special songs for us that weren't on your repertoire list. Great for our special day. Thank you"

Thank you so much for learning our special song and playing it SO well, that we would have your version over the original any day! You completely blew us away. Everyone was talking about you and asking me where did I find you? lol! Hope to see you again some day but for now, keep singing and making everyone around you smile. Lots of love, Kate and John."

"We were looking for a live Jazz / Soul performer for my birthday party June 09, checking out all the available musicians and stumbled across Catherine. We listened to a few of her tracks and there was no doubt this was the performer for my party! Catherine's voice is very soulful but yet different she made every track her own and looked stunning on stage where she played the guitar beautifully which added to the ambiance of the evening. The guests took a warming to Catherine's personality and charms and Catherine really engaged with my guests, once the dinner was over the guests started a sing-a-long with Catherine, they sang on stage with her and they all had a real ball! I would definitely recommend Catherine for any occasion be it birthdays, engagements or corporate events. My party was the talk of the town and people still comment on how much they enjoyed Catherine's performances. So what 3 things can I say to sum up Catherine??? Fab Singer... Great Personality... and Absolute Stunner... Regards, Anwar Razvi "
