I found some studio footage from 2021. Recording “Slowly”, out now (have you heard it yet?) www.instagram.com/p/DP5U5O0jdw-/

Yes, I’m the drummer too. This one was very fun to play and record. Look at that kick drum! #catherinenorthstudios

The day before a tour is odd. In 2019 I checked myself in to the ER with a severely acute anxiety attack, the day before a solo tour. And I still played every single show that tour. The show must go on!

This year I’m smiling. I hope to see you somewhere along the way:

Feature: The Sun Harmonic Decodes “Glory Days” - Punk Head

How did you come up with the music video idea? Ian McLennan (Bass): The idea for the video was driven by necessity more than anything else. We shot it in a very small rehearsal space with a budget...

This was a really special invitation for me to perform as the first solo act ever on #Pick22Presents, inside a very cool collectibles shop in Niagara Falls. I hope I did it justice! They did such a good job filming this and I’m proud to share it here. Happy Monday. 😘

I like to introduce Dive with 5 simple words: This song is about depression. Don't worry, it feels better to sing about it than to suffer. I know some of you feel the same. Let's talk, sing, live life together, it's less lonely that way.

A jazzy number called "I Know". This is one of my favourite, slowest, quietest songs to sing. This song was written, recorded and sung with Billie Holiday in mind and in my heart.

Tune in to watch all 8 songs and/or the complete concert, uncut, now on Youtube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbNX...

Enjoy
