About Me |
|
Cat Malojian aim to release their recordings on their own Bad Paw Music label and are hoping to shift enough copies of each release to fund the next one and so on - so with your support and an ever growing catalogue of songs, they hope to be around for a very long time (even if not that many people know about them!). They are currently looking for distribution deals. You can now purchase the E.P.s by clicking on the links below or at any of the places below: Discs Records, Market St., Lurgan The Rusty Zip, Botanic Ave., Belfast Life Rolls On e.p. tracklisting: 1. Life Rolls On 2. Baby's Got It 3. Dely Delee Delo 4. Only You We're Alright e.p. tracklisting: 1. We're Alright 2. Have Mercy On Me 3. Planets 4. Bad Company (Live) "The cats that got the cream, Cat Malojian are a pair of musical missionaries from Lurgan, preaching their heart-rending gospel of folk, country and Americana. Their technical finesse is astounding, whether utilising acoustic guitar or banjo, the playing is never less than forensically precise. The stories they have to tell are wondrous and redolent, gentle lyricism fostering a real sense of nostalgia, of a grasping for something that is irrevocably lost. There are tales of drowning, of being god forsaken, of drinking moonshine and of getting high, of bursting life's bubbles and plumbing despair's depths. Cat Malojian are unquestionably mighty." culturenorthernireland.org "Listeners, it's the second instalment of Cat Malojian and their excellent twang 'n' strum scheme. As before, it sounds sweet and sedate, the kind of expression that comes late at night on the front porch, nicely oiled by some corn liquor. 'We're Alright' feels the love and reminds you of those charming old Harry Nilsson records. 'Have Mercy On Me' carries a hint of remorse, like the scratchy feeling of Sunday's best shirt. But with 'Planets' the infatuation returns. Stevie's voice is breathless and cracked, like Elliott Smith or Rick Danko from The Band. It's a delight. They round off the CD with a live recording of 'Bad Company'. The rambling boy is overly fond of the whiskey, hanging out with unreliable friends and getting loaded. His mama is threatening to evict him, but the drink is still calling and the live audience are whooping with encouragement. Cheers, then. It really is cool for cats." Stuart Bailie, BBC Radio Uslter. "The songs of Lurgan duo Cat Malojian are dreamily intense, hewn from personal heartache and a sense of ravaged humanity. Their bittersweet ‘Life Rolls On’ EP is a slice of classic Americana, evoking memories of the greats, from Gram Parsons and The Band through to Whiskeytown and Iron & Wine." Francis Jones, Alternative Ulster. |
