Bio:

Kaitlyn Raitz (she/her), New York-born Nashvillian, grew up surrounded by a wide array of musical genres, finding each one more exciting than the next. These curiosities have led her to a career as a multi-style cellist, composer, songwriter, and cello teacher, offering lessons online to students of all ages.

Kaitlyn holds a Bachelor of Music degree and a Performer’s Certificate from Purchase College, State University of New York where she studied with Julia Lichten, and a Master of Music degree from McGill University where she studied with Matt Haimovitz.

In October 2021, she released her debut album “Me, Myself, Myself, and I,” an album of classical-crossover cello quartets and quintets. She is also the cellist for country singer-songwriter Brandy Clark, one half of her own folk/Americana duo Oliver the Crow, and the cellist and creative director for the Atwood Quartet.
