A Shield


Catself will record her album with...

Posted at: 2011-07-06 02:39:33

I am proud to announce that I will work on my album with Saint Nicholas Orchestra!!



Please visit their website (it is in many languages) and read all about them. You will see how lucky I am to be working with them on my debut!

Saint Nicholas Orchestra are the leading Polish folk band, and more than that - they basically created the interest in folk music in Poland. Accidentally, they are from the city where I grew up - Lublin. When I lived there, and also after I moved away, I regularly visited the folk festival they organise every December. They are one of my favourite bands - but the reason why invited them to work with me is that their style and my songs make a really special combination. It is like nothing else.

During the Midsummer week, Saint Nicholas Orchestra visited Finland to play a few shows. We had our first rehearsals. We even already played our first show together

We are going to record quite many songs for the album together. Right now, we are preparing for the recording. I am really happy that they found the time to work with me because in the meantime, they are also playing so many shows. Here is the link to their shows (upcoming gigs are posted only in Polish but what is Google Translate for) - maybe they will some time be playing nearby you?

I cannot wait to record with them, in fact, I cannot wait for this album to be ready and for you to hear it.

Memories from Liberté and an update!

Posted at: 2011-07-06 00:45:46

On March 23 this year, I played a show in Club Liberté, Helsinki, together with Oona Kapari and Julia Marcell. It was a fantastic night - great atmosphere and sound!

Below there are some videos from the show. The first one is actually the full guitar set (it is a playlist so videos come one after another!).





Important!! For my SellaBand Believers: a long update about my album progress has been sent to SellaBand and you will receive it by email tomorrow!

(My SellaBand Believers - both in the Album Project and Promotion Project will get to see more videos - of songs never posted on YouTube before, and two of them have never been posted anywhere online - I only played them at shows :) Anyone who joins my Promotion Project by the end of this week will also get these links!).

Please come back to my site soon for some big news...

Catself's style is quite different from the rest in the genre. No love songs or (love) sadness and other clichés, but songs about nature, dreams, mermaids, hitchhiking in Spain, fishing and fishermen, drunken Finns, runaway cats, hit deer, bunnies struck by the lightning and the Apocalypse. All this accompanied by herself on guitar, which was for the second set exchanged for a piano. She kept the audience breathless and captivated till the end.
