CAT
HILTZ

A kid at heart who never outgrew their Beatles and Radiohead phase, Cat Hiltz is equally at home in a string quartet as in a rhythm section.

I'm a bit of a musical chameleon who's spent the last two decades blending formal training with the grit and adventure of life on tour. Whether it's discovering a signature sound with an artist, underscoring your favourite scene, or contributing to a co-writing session, my focus is on creating music that feels honest and real.

Having worked for years as a session player with a genuine love for music theory, I bring the versatility to realize what you hear in your head. I love lush extended harmonies, warped ASMR brain-ticklers, enveloping warm textures, and a deep pocket.

I've composed music for CTV's Farming For Love and Hallmark's Zest For Death: A Hannah Swensen Mystery, and licensed songs to shows My Life With The Walter Boys (Netflix), Family Law (Global/StackTV) and Motive (ABC/CTV). In my performance career, I have played with Tegan and Sara, Jill Barber, Queer As Funk, Mathew V, Rae Spoon, and many others.

I've been featured in Billboard Magazine and The Georgia Straight, and been featured in Rolling Stone and NME with past bands. The main driver in my career is to amplify underrepresented voices and more authentically share the stories less often told, in order to rebalance who gets to contribute to the cultural landscape.

Let's make something great together. Your story, your voice, through music. You in?
