I'm listening to ...

catmalojianfastfude3lp.jpg -- a meeting place of folk, country and bluegrass, though that really doesn't capture the sound produced by Stevie Scullion and Jonathan Toman. Both from Lurgan in county Armagh, they've have been playing music together since they met at university nearly ten years ago. I met them a few months ago after they performed live on The Alan Simpson Show, and I've been following their progress with interest ever since. Their first album is launched this weekend (on Saturday at 3pm at the QFT), but I've been listening to an advance copy on-and-off now for a couple of weeks. Mudd Wallace co-produces and co-arranges Stevie Scullion's original songs and the result is utterly beguiling. I love it.

Cat Malojian is also a stunningly well-chosen name for this sound -- even though, I freely confess, I don't know what it "means" (how un-Postmodern of me). The guys will be guesting on both McLean's Country and Stu Bailie's late show in June. Listen to the band .
