Catie Offerman released a new song this week — “Sound Of Missing You,” written by her, Justin Ebach and Josh Thompson. The song exudes lonely honky tonk vibes.
Says Offerman, “‘Sound Of Missing You’ put me back in every dancehall in [my homestate] Texas, reminiscing on every broken heart. The truth is that not every honkytonk memory is a happy one. I remember distinctly the day we wrote it, and Justin telling me he had this idea inspired by his dog, Gnocchi. His dog would whine for him and his wife, Jeanine, said ‘That’s the sound of him missing you,’ which, of course, is an amazing song title! I’m so grateful I was on the writing calendar that day!”

About Catie Offerman:
Catie Offerman may be a new name to country music fans, but she’s already gaining a reputation as one of the genre’s most skilled players and promising modern traditionalists. Originally from New Braunfels, Texas, Offerman grew up on a horse ranch. Home schooled by her father in the tack room of their barn, she gravitated towards music at a young age. Offerman started playing piano at the age of four which eventually led her to pursue other instruments such as violin, accordion and more. When she was 11, Offerman’s accordion teacher asked her to join his polka band. She played accordion and fiddle at German fests across the state for years, touring before she could even drive. Offerman also explored her love for Western Swing, diving into Bob Wills music headfirst. At the age of 19 she graduated from Berklee College of Music. She spent time in Sweden and Los Angeles before settling down in Nashville. In 2020 Catie signed a record deal with Universal Music group, sharing the same imprint as her idol, George Strait. When not writing or in the studio Offerman is where she feels most comfortable – on the road. She’s toured with national acts such as Parker McCollum, Ian Munsick and Ashley McBryde, and she’s collaborated with fellow Texans such as Josh Abbott, Robert Earl Keen, Kevin Fowler and Hayes Carll. Offerman has also performed on the Grand Ole Opry at C2C 2023 in London. For more information visit catieofferman.com.
Catie Offerman (Sound of Missing You) OC: …have it out. :50
“’Sound of Missing You’ is my brand-new song. I remember specifically the day we wrote this at Justin Ebach’s house, and I came in and we were zooming in Josh Thompson, and before Josh got on the zoom, Ebach told me his wife Jeanine, who I adore, was talking about how that morning or the day before, something like that, their little Malti-poo or whatever, named Yoki, was whining for Justin to like pay attention to him, you know wanting to be the center of attention. And Jeanine made some type of comment of like, ‘Ah, you know, don’t give him a hard time. That’s just the sound of him missing you.’ I guess Justin was like, ‘Dang. That’s a song – ‘Sound of Missing You.’ We’ve got to write that today.’ And I just feel lucky that he had that idea on the day I was writing with him, because we came up with this one, and I love it. I also played fiddle on this one, and I’m just so proud to have it out.”
