Callahan's moving performances won her the the Connecticut Music Awards "Best Singer-Songwriter of the Year." She has opened shows at the legendary Iron Horse Music Hall and been featured as an emerging artist at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival. Folk legends Noel Paul Stookey (Peter, Paul & Mary), Judy Collins, Aztec Two-Step and the late Bill Morrissey have all welcomed Kate on-stage as an opening act. Stookey calls her "real" and says Callahan's lyrics are "Zen-like."

Callahan says a defining element of her music is innocence and she’s unapologetically optimistic in concert. WNPR host Colin McEnroe recently praised Kate, saying, "Kate Callahan is the only performer I’ve ever seen who occasionally seems to be channeling something vaster and far more ancient than herself, something more easily understood by Emerson than by any modern person."

The Hartford Courant distinguished Callahan a 2005 "Woman of Character." She received the honor for her now thirteen-year Artist Residency in the West Hartford, Connecticut Public Schools and home-state presence as a singer-songwriter.

Callahan's new album "Two Doors" explores themes of spirituality, marriage, capital punishment, and creativity through her deep and metaphorical lyrics. Her writing has been compared to Neko Case and Leonard Cohen. "Two Doors" was produced by Jim Chapdelaine, a Grammy nominated and Emmy award-winning producer. The album is folk with hints of soft indie and Nashville. "Two Doors" can be previewed at www.kate-callahan.com or on Spotify.
