Rock Folk Pop Americana

About Cathryn

As a Bay Area session guitarist with over a decade of experience, I specialize in delivering groove-driven, expressive guitar work that serves the song. Playing both lead and rhythm on acoustic and electric guitar, I bring atmosphere, emotion, and strong vocal storytelling support to every track.

My playing draws from rock, folk, and pop influences with an Americana heart. Inspired by the storytelling guitar of Tom Petty, the raw emotion of Amy Winehouse's band work, and the modern melodic sensibilities of contemporary indie and pop, I create guitar parts that elevate your music without overshadowing it.

At Golden Hour Sound & Studios, which I founded to empower independent artists, I deliver professional guitar tracks that complement your vision. Whether you need melodic lead lines, rhythmic acoustic strumming, atmospheric electric textures, or full arrangements, I work fast and focus on making your song better.
