Katerwaul 3 Rehearsals
As you may or may not have heard, Katerwaul are going to be very busy this Summer. We’re in the midst of rehearsing the new tracks that will make up our third record which is as yet untitled (feel free to go nuts and reply your own suggestions, the cruder the better) those of you who will catch us in London Camden for the Accidental Festival on the 22nd May may get a taster of what will come...

THESE SILVER DARLINGS
Its not a Tee Pee time of the month again. February seemed to be bypassed but its back with a vengeance. Following on from January’s “Ada Lovelace” instalment March goes back to a theme more open and ambiguous. Thank christ. Not A Tee Pee has been great for dragging me kicking and screaming out of my comfort zone. Ever since I was sixteen I seem to have limited myself to one...
DWELLER Balcony Bar Dundee 16th March
I don’t normally do gig reviews, but this blog is mainly for Brave Or Invincible fans out there who are intrigued by the goings on in Aberdeen.

In The Absence Of My Presence
I received an email recently about the prospect of recording a live video of one of our Katerwaul songs and doing a short essay on the song writing process. I thought it was a great Idea and will be putting it to the boys soon, probably a live, unplugged rendition of “Valley Under A Concrete Sea” in Aberdeen’s Union Terrace Gardens.

King Tuts Wah Wah Hut 06/03/11
The fact that OASIS signed a record contract on the strength of their show at King Tuts Wah Wah Hut seemed to be lost on our Drummer Nick Morrice. We were half way between Dundee and Glasgow when read this whilst googling the venue on his smart phone. “Turn the car around!” was the reply from Graham on learning this. Its safe to say we will never suffer the same fate as Brit...

Just finished the first draft of lyrics for a new Katerwaul tune. Its called February and its about… well February. February 2011 to be exact. Without coming across like a total winge its just about how February always seems to be the longest month despite it having the least days in it. And its never an eventful month and wish it’d just fuck off already.

New Movie Poster Designs "No More Shall We Part"
Shaun Hughes is due to start shooting his unconventional western in April. And to try and generate interest with some familiar face actors I cooked up these two designs as teaser posters. I can’t give too much away but I can tell you I will be composing the Music for this exciting project.
