Producer//Composer//Cat Botherer

One auspicious day, a bored musician with a love of technology and a dream of bending rules and weaving tales suddenly found herself bitten by a radioactive cat.  She stared deep into its laser eyes, completely transfixed. The cat was telling her something, with a tiny twitch of the whisker (to adjust the frequency) the message came through loud and clear. Nano-seconds later, twinned with a strange desire to sit on her neighbours car bonnet, she shirked off the responsibilities of a mundane life, pawned her guitar, midi-ed her hairbrush and bought a sampler...


"Catnip and Claws pulls off track after track of dynamic, inventive and expertly constructed electronica, tempered by a surprising diversity in sound and instrumentation.  It’s hard to avoid gushing like a doe-eyed fool." 
- Netlabelism.com


"The fact that someone is universally popular with her peers and says that she is into cats, is no guarantee their music will be as nice as her. In Emma Catnip's case though, its true. Nice is understated for her music really, but there is a beautiful dreamlike quality to it (laced with harder beats) that makes you believe peoples inner beauty can escape into their music. Check out 'Beings' if you don't believe me."

When it comes to Lit FM, there's always a message to the music

A laid back, indie folk band from East Anglia. The line-up is made up of like-minded musicians that all met within the local music scene throughout the years. With their 'gypsy-esque' style strumming patterns and their 'rootsy-true' lyrics comes a very easily listenable 'Chalky Seas', appealing to all. Chalky Seas whose original members Tony Poole and Joe Altham founded the band in Lowestoft, Suffolk back in 2015 started by writing their latest effort, the 'CAVALIER' EP which was released in March 2016.  They are currently building a strong following through the early release of their single 'Plastic Friends' which has been received well.

Chalky Seas are a four piece consisting of an acoustic toting lead vocalist, electric guitarist, bass and drums. This was an assured, if unspectacular debut gig. I don't want to damn with faint praise but my notes include "earnest", "polite", “tasteful” and "arena-indie". At times, I was reminded of Walking On Cars, Travis and Elbow, perhaps more in the delivery than in the actual musical style. There's the kernel of something potentially great here and I'll definitely be keeping an ear out for these guys. - Outline magazine.
