Rising Recognition and Awards
2024 was a breakout year for Caitlin Lavagna. Her single “Gold” not only resonated with fans but also earned her a spot as a BBC Radio Wales Welsh A-Lister, a major recognition for rising talent. The success of the track led to an invitation to perform live and give an interview inside the BBC Studios in Cardiff, where she showcased her artistry to a national audience.
Her momentum didn’t stop there. In January, Caitlin secured third place in the Radio Wigwam Awards for Best Female Artist and followed it up with a first-place win at the Newport City Radio Awards for Best Solo Artist. These achievements cemented her as a rising voice in the UK music scene.
Few artists can command both stage and studio with the same ease, but Caitlin Lavagna is proving she’s one of them. An Actor Musician from South Wales and Gibraltar, Caitlin is carving her own path in music and theatre, bringing together powerhouse vocals, heartfelt songwriting, and a love for rhythm that pulses through every performance. Whether she’s behind the drum kit, centre-stage as a vocalist, or stepping into character as an actor, Caitlin embodies the spirit of a true multi-hyphenate artist.
