Hattie Craven is a genre-blending singer, multi-instrumentalist, and magnetic performer who has been onstage since early childhood. Raised in a deeply musical household and mentored by her father, award-winning artist and educator Joe Craven, she made her festival debut at just four years old on the Kate Wolf Music Festival main stage alongside Laura Love.

A natural actor, dancer, and vocalist, Hattie grew from early musical-theater leads into a sought-after session singer by age eleven, recording her debut album “Eleven” with the Joe Craven Trio. She has since released multiple solo albums—including Bright—and continues to evolve her sound across folk, bluegrass, jazz, pop, and soul.

Her dynamic live presence has earned her standing ovations at major festivals including Strawberry, California World Fest, Wintergrass, Live Oak, Parkfield Bluegrass, Millpond, Suwannee Roots Revival, and Delfest.

A versatile instrumentalist on ukulele, baritone uke, mandolin, tenor guitar, banjo, and fiddle, Hattie pairs technical skill with a rich, expressive voice influenced by artists like Amy Winehouse, Joni Mitchell, James Brown, and Louis Prima. Her songwriting explores themes of love, loss, resilience, and reinvention.

She recently expanded her national reach through her collaboration with Dirtwire and LVDY on the single “Take Me Mama.”
