Cathy Jain - Artificial - 12-INCH SINGLE [12 inch Vinyl Single]

When you dig through old boxes, you find stuff you've completely forgotten about - and every once in a while you find old nuggets that are worth rediscovering. The members of The Quill decided to compile the best material they could find and make a special that would provide an interesting listening experience while we wait for the next studio album. There are 3 outtakes from the Earthrise album The version of InchKeep on MovingInch is almost 1 30 longer than the album version and contains a long middle part. The other two tracks (InchChildren of the SunInch and InchBurning TreeInch), could not be included on the Earthrise album due to time constraints. Next there are 4 cover songs (Iron Maiden - Where Eagles Dare, Aerosmith - S.O.S, Captain Beyond - Frozen Over and November - Mount Everest) which are no longer available. Finally, 2 live tracks from the band's performance at Sweden Rock Festival 2019. Now finally available as yellow and black splatter vinyl !

Half Waif's music is deeply personal and engaging, reflecting her lifelong endeavor to reconcile a sense of place. Her form/a EP is a collection of tracks that expand on her exploration of origin. InchThere's an inherent restlessness in the way that I write and think about sound,Inch she explains. InchI'm the daughter of a refugee, and somewhere in me is this innate story of searching for a home. As a result, I have many. I'm sentimental, nostalgic, yet constantly seeking what's next, excavating the sound of my past and coloring it to make the sound of my future.Inch

One morning while reading the newspaper, I came across an article about local recording studios in town. The owner of one studio, Dave Cocalis, mentioned in the article that he 'liked working with singer-songwriters who didn't have their own bands.' That was me! I called Dave, somewhat anxious about working with someone new, but set up a time to do one song together. We never looked back. Nine months later, with Dave as recording engineer, producer, and fellow musician, the musical journey of making this CD has been a blast. I'm thrilled about what we've put together and eager to get working on the next CD. The styles of music range from blues to folk to jazz, maybe even a bit of pop thrown in. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.
