Catcall – ‘Diss’

Listen to

I’ve seen Catherine Kelleher performed in Kiosk many many times and have seen her hung around the Sydney scene for a number of years but I didn’t actually get to talk to her until we met in Meredith last December. I was hanging out with a Melbourne crew I met shortly after moving down (they eventually became Gameboy/Gamegirl) and she happened to be friends with them. I am pretty sure she was at least as intoxicated as me at the time, it was dark and we were moving through the campsite to get something from her tent. I held on to every last bit of sobriety I could muster so I could at least get some get-to-know conversation going. It’s weird how I’ve heard her songs, seen her on stage and wrote about her and finally getting to know sort of completes the experience. And yes she is really lovely.

Catcall is her new solo project and all the songs on myspace is quite basic and I’m guessing these are just home demos to what will shape up to be more elaborately arranged tracks. Diss is perfect for an introductory song, it’s declarative, flows along at a pace she’s obviously comfortable with, and provides the listener with multiple choices on where to go from here. This should be good, expect to hear more soon.

Sydneysiders: she is playing with Deerhoof and My Disco at the Factory Theatre tomorrow, go to this gig!
