Catcall (musician)

Catcall (aka Catherine Kelleher) is a Sydney musician and singer. A former member of punk band Kiosk, Catcall released her debut solo album, The Warmest Place, in May 2012 through Ivy League Records.[1][2]

Gawker described Satellites as “sublimely catchy”, and influential US music blog Gorilla vs Bear placed the track in its top 100 songs of 2011. The yearning and soulful Swimming Pool topped Hype Machine upon release, received high praise from sites like Rose Quartz, Fader and Electrorash, and was voted the best local track of 2010 by Mess+Noise who described it as “…the most resonant pop song to unexpectedly emerge in 2010… This is a rare species of pop music that doesn’t press itself upon you. It bleeds and smears and evolves and gradually becomes alive”.

The album included a cover version of "I'm in Love with a German Film Star", a 1981 song by British post-punk band The Passions. Videos were produced for three of the album's songs, "August", "Satellites" and "The World is Ours"."[3]

A new single, "One Time," was released in 2017.
