Catherine Feeny chats to I Like Music


CATHERINE: It kind of evolves over time, but with most of the songs on that album, the lyrics and the music came together at the same time. With songs like Hurricane Glass and Touch Back Down and Hush Now, the lyrics just came out fully formed as they were, but with songs like Unsteady Ground or Always Tonight, those I rewrote several times, because I hadn't quite gotten what I wanted to get or it didn't quite sound like I wanted it to sound. I think it's really exciting and fun and satisfying if you can sit down and in an hour or two have a song, that's really cool.

ILM: There's been a groundswell of independently generated fans for you, a rapidly growing fan base in both the UK and U.S, and support slots for the likes of Martha Wainwright and Suzanne Vega - how was it touring with Martha and Suzanne?

CATHERINE: It was fantastic. It's always lovely to tour with people, especially women, who have more experience and people who you can learn from. Martha Wainwright has been on the stage since she was a very young kid; she has a very showbiz family. She's so comfortable on stage she just rolls with whatever comes her way and just makes it ok and funny and part of the show and that's something I really enjoyed watching and felt that I could steel a little bit of that.
