Catie Offerman Seeks Out the ‘Good Stuff’ – In Music and Beyond

With her carpe diem country anthem, “Happyland Trailer Park,” newcomer Catie Offerman hits the road in seek of adventure and possibility — and that drive doesn’t come out of nowhere.

Marking her debut track, the freewheeling country rocker features an open mind and some good advice to live by, and in the exclusive premiere of a new behind-the-music clip, Sounds Like Nashville finds out why.

Introducing Offerman just as she begins her career, the clip shows this Texas native as a thrill seeker who practices what she preaches. Growing up on a horse ranch, she loved exploring the world around her … but she was even more into exploring music. With a lifelong love of performance, she was playing piano by age four, and moved on to singing, playing guitar and sawing on a fiddle soon after. In fact, she even used to play polka around her hometown of New Braunfels (pronounced BRAWN-felz), and that fearless desire to try new things is how she ended up in Nashville — chasing what she calls the “good stuff.”

“Everybody’s got a different definition of the ‘good stuff’ but what is the ‘good stuff?’” Offerman asks. “It’s what makes you happy, it’s what makes you feel alive. ‘Happyland Trailer Park’ is the place your spirit leads you. It’s about searching out the parts of life that aren’t mapped out. I love the uncertainties in the adventure and finding the happiness of the journey along the way. The heart is the key — just going with it and taking the ride.”
