Is country music have a bit of a moment?
Justin Timberlake went back to his roots on his recent hugely successful album, while Kylie Minogue made the pilgrimage to Nashville on her soaring new LP.
A new wave of pop-edged country stars are spearheading a fresh generation, with Catherine McGrath leading the way.
Hailing from the UK but with an international appeal, Catherine's songwriting takes those iconic country elements but re-tools them for the social media generation.
New album 'Talk Of This Town' arrives on July 27th (pre-order LINK), and it could be the point that this small town girl from Northern Ireland hits the big time.
New single 'Lost In The Middle' is a reflection on her roots, and also on the power music has to transform both your life and the perception of your surroundings.
"'Lost In The Middle' is a song about how country music has the ability to take you out of whatever situation you’re in and make you feel better," says Catherine. "Country music is really good at telling stories, which often recall your own favourite memories."
Justin Nolan Key returns to direct the video, and it's filmed in Catherine's favourite city – country capital Nashville.
